Definition of trpB

• HMM TIGR00263
• Ignore hits to items matching EC 4.2.1.20 when looking for 'other' hits
• Ignore hits to items matching EC 4.2.1.122 when looking for 'other' hits
• Comment: Some members of TIGR01415 might also have this activity. The family also includes indole-scavenging "trpB-2" proteins, whose presence generally indicates tryptophan synthesis (EC 4.2.1.122)
