Finding step manY for D-glucose catabolism in Frischella perrara PEB0191

2 candidates for manY: glucose PTS, enzyme EIIC

Score Gene Description Similar to Id. Cov. Bits Other hit Other id. Other bits
hi FPB0191_RS07740 PTS mannose/fructose/sorbose transporter subunit IIC PTS system, mannose/fructose/sorbose family, IIC component, component of The primary glucose /mannose uptake transporter, ManLMN (characterized) 76% 100% 401 Mannose-specific PTS system, IIC component, component of Mannose enzyme II complex, IIAB, IIC, IID. IIC/IID serve allows entry of some bacteriocins including pediocin (class IIa) and lactococcin A (class IIc) (Kjos et al., 2011). Transports and phosphorylates Glucose, Mannose and Glucosamine 56% 302.8
lo FPB0191_RS03395 PTS sugar transporter subunit IIC mannose permease IIC component (characterized) 30% 98% 125.6 PTS system, IIC component, component of The fucose PTS uptake transporter, IIA/IIB/IIC/IIDFuc (FcsABCD) (Manzoor et al. 2015). Expression in response to fucose is under the control of the FcsR transcriptional activator, and its DNA binding site has been identified 34% 176.0

Confidence: high confidence medium confidence low confidence
transporter – transporters and PTS systems are shaded because predicting their specificity is particularly challenging.

GapMind searches the predicted proteins for candidates by using ublast (a fast alternative to protein BLAST) to find similarities to characterized proteins or by using HMMer to find similarities to enzyme models (usually from TIGRFams). For alignments to characterized proteins (from ublast), scores of 44 bits correspond to an expectation value (E) of about 0.001.

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:

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:

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:

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).
