Overview: Mannose utilization in GapMind is based on MetaCyc pathways D-mannose degradation I via a PTS system (link), pathway II via mannose kinase (link), or conversion to fructose by mannose isomerase.

all:

mannose-PTS and manA
or mannose-transport, mannokinase and manA
or mannose-transport, man-isomerase and scrK
Comment: In pathway I, after uptake and phosphorlation by a PTS system, mannose-6-phosphate isomerase (manA) produces fructose-6-phosphate, which is a central metabolic intermediate. In pathway II, after uptake, mannose kinase is followed by isomerization to fructose 6-phosphate. Or, D-mannose isomerase yields fructose, which can be metabolized by fructokinase (scrK).

mannose-transport:

glcS, glcT, glcU and glcV
or TT_C0211, TT_C0327, TT_C0326 and TT_C0328

or frcA, frcB and frcC
or HSERO_RS03635, HSERO_RS03640 and HSERO_RS03645
or STP6
or gluP
or glcP
or MST1
or manMFS
Comment: Transporters and PTS systems were identified using query: transporter:mannose:D-mannose:D-mannopyranose:CPD-13559:CPD-12601

mannose-PTS:

manX, manY and manZ
or manP
Comment: PTS systems form D-mannose 6-phosphate

About GapMind

Each pathway is defined by a set of rules based on individual steps or genes. Candidates for each step are identified by using ublast (a fast alternative to protein BLAST) against a database of manually-curated proteins (most of which are experimentally characterized) or by using HMMer with enzyme models (usually from TIGRFam). Ublast hits may be split across two different proteins.

A candidate for a step is "high confidence" if either:

ublast finds a hit to a characterized protein at above 40% identity and 80% coverage, and bits >= other bits+10.
- (Hits to curated proteins without experimental data as to their function are never considered high confidence.)
HMMer finds a hit with 80% coverage of the model, and either other identity < 40 or other coverage < 0.75.

where "other" refers to the best ublast hit to a sequence that is not annotated as performing this step (and is not "ignored").

Otherwise, a candidate is "medium confidence" if either:

ublast finds a hit at above 40% identity and 70% coverage (ignoring otherBits).
ublast finds a hit at above 30% identity and 80% coverage, and bits >= other bits.
HMMer finds a hit (regardless of coverage or other bits).

Other blast hits with at least 50% coverage are "low confidence."

Steps with no high- or medium-confidence candidates may be considered "gaps." For the typical bacterium that can make all 20 amino acids, there are 1-2 gaps in amino acid biosynthesis pathways. For diverse bacteria and archaea that can utilize a carbon source, there is a complete high-confidence catabolic pathway (including a transporter) just 38% of the time, and there is a complete medium-confidence pathway 63% of the time. Gaps may be due to:

our ignorance of proteins' functions,
omissions in the gene models,
frame-shift errors in the genome sequence, or
the organism lacks the pathway.

GapMind relies on the predicted proteins in the genome and does not search the six-frame translation. In most cases, you can search the six-frame translation by clicking on links to Curated BLAST for each step definition (in the per-step page).
