Protein Info for Psest_2123 in Pseudomonas stutzeri RCH2
Updated annotation (from data): fusion of gluconokinase (EC 2.7.1.12) and the small permease component of the D-gluconate TRAP transporter
Rationale: This protein has pleiotropic phenotypes which are not explained, but it is most important for fitness with D-gluconate as the carbon source, consistent with its putative roles as part of the tripartite gluconate transport system and as gluconate kinase. Also, the N-terminal part is 49% identical to PP3416 or gnuK from P. putida, which is the catabolic gluconate kinase (PMC1951859). The SEED and KEGG annotations ignore the dctQ-like C-terminal portion.
Original annotation: carbohydrate kinase, thermoresistant glucokinase family
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.
