Protein Info for SM_b21124 in Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021
Updated annotation (from data): 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, alpha (biotin-containing) subunit (EC 6.4.1.4)
Rationale: Specifically important for utilizing L-Leucine.
Original annotation: methylcrotonoyl-CoA carboxylase biotinylated subunit
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.
