description: This family has a TIM barrel-like fold with a deep C-terminal trefoil knot. The arrangement
  of its hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces are opposite to that of the classic TIM barrel proteins.
  It is likely to bind RNA [[cite:PUB00021971]], and may function as a methyltransferase [[cite:PUB00044735],[cite:PUB00057459]].
