Protein Info for HP15_1796 in Marinobacter adhaerens HP15
Updated annotation (from data): required for sulfate utilization, putative electron transport protein for sulfite reductase
Rationale: PFam PF06073.8 (DUF934). Conserved cofitness with sulfite reductase; auxotrophic.
Original annotation: uncharacterized conserved protein UCP030820
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.
