Protein Info for SMc02121 in Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021

Updated annotation (from data): ABC transporter for L-Glutamine, L-Histidine, and other L-amino acids, ATPase component
Rationale: Very important for histidine and glutamine utilization and also for lysine utilization. It could be the ATPase component for lysine transport by Smc00140:Smc00138 as well (as there is no ATPase component in that gene cluster or other ATPase component identified in the fitness data)
Original annotation: general L-amino acid transport ATP-binding ABC transporter 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.
