The glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GDPD)‐like SMaseD/PLD domain family, which includes phospholipase D (PLD) toxins in recluse spiders and actinobacteria, evolved anciently in bacteria from the GDPD. The PLD enzymes retained the core (β/α)8 barrel fold of GDPD, while gaining a signature C‐terminal expansion motif and losing a small insertion domain. Using sequence alignments and phylogenetic...
Background Venom-expressed sphingomyelinase D/phospholipase D (SMase D/PLD) enzymes evolved from the ubiquitous glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterases (GDPD). Expression of GDPD-like SMaseD/PLD toxins in both arachnids and bacteria has inspired consideration of the relative contributions of lateral gene transfer and convergent recruitment in the evolutionary history of this lineage. Previous...
