Updated annotations for Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

2 genes with updated (or confirmed) annotations:

Synpcc7942_1313 aspS : aspartyl-tRNA(Asp/Asn) synthetase (EC 6.1.1.23)
Original description: aspartyl-tRNA synthetase
SEED: Aspartyl-tRNA synthetase (EC 6.1.1.12) @ Aspartyl-tRNA(Asn) synthetase (EC 6.1.1.23)
KEGG: aspartyl-tRNA synthetase
Rationale: A conserved essential gene. This activity is necessary to explain asparagine biosynthesis. Similar to both aspartyl-tRNA(Asp) synthetases (as from Arabidopsis chloroplasts & mitochondria) and to aspartyl-tRNA(Asn) synthetases (as from Bacillus subtilis)

Synpcc7942_1745 : nitrite transporter, HPP family
Original description: hypothetical protein
SEED: Slr0789 protein
KEGG: no annotation
Rationale: # Important for nitrite stress. This was shown to be capable of nitrite uptake (PMID:24904028), but with moderate affinity, and this data suggests that it might be exporting nitrite. Since nitrate was also present, this could also be a nitrate/nitrite antiporter (speculative).
