Definition of galK

Curated proteins or TIGRFams with EC 2.7.1.6
Ignore hits to items matching galactokinase when looking for 'other' hits
Comment: Some curated sequences match an HMM and are annotated as galactokinases, but without the EC number.

Fetched 11 sequences

Running ublast to find other characterized proteins with 40% identity and 70% coverage

Found hits to 3 other characterized sequences. (Found 14 hits including self hits.)

Removing ignored items reduces this to 0 close sequences.

There are also 1 HMM-only high-coverage hits.

HMM-only sequences

(Since these sequences' annotations are outside the definition for galK, HMM hits that are over 40% similar to these sequences will be scored as moderate confidence.)
