Immunity protein 35 A predicted immunity protein with an alpha+beta fold and a conserved tryptophan residue. Proteins containing this domain are present in bacterial polymorphic toxin systems as an immediate gene neighbour of the toxin gene, usually containing a protease domain such as Tox-PL1 and Ntox40. In some instances, it is also fused to a papain-like toxin, ADP-ribosyl glycohydrolase and a S8-like peptidase. Based on these associations the domain is likely to be a protease inhibitor.
