Protein Info for AO353_07740 in Pseudomonas fluorescens FW300-N2E3
Updated annotation (from data): ABC transporter for Carnitine, substrate-binding component
Rationale: Specific phenotypes on Carnitine Hydrochloride. Similar to CaiX (see PMID:19919675). This transporter may also have a second SBP, AO353_07780, similar to CbcX, which is reported to be an alternate SBP for choline or glycine utilization (ibid). However _07780 is also important for carnitine utilization - it might be an additional necessary subunit of this transporter.
Original annotation: glycine/betaine ABC transporter substrate-binding protein
These analyses and tools can help you predict a protein's function, but be skeptical. For enzymes, over 10% of annotations from KEGG or SEED are probably incorrect. For other types of proteins, the error rates may be much higher. MetaCyc and Swiss-Prot have low error rates, but the best hits in these databases are often quite distant, so this protein's function may not be the same. TIGRFam has low error rates. Finally, many experimentally-characterized proteins are not in any of these databases. To find relevant papers, use PaperBLAST.
