Finding step lysP for L-lysine catabolism in Haloterrigena daqingensis JX313
No candidates for lysP: L-lysine:H+ symporter LysP
GapMind classifies a step as low confidence even if it does not find any candidates. You can still try to find candidates by using Curated BLAST (which searches the 6-frame translation) or by text search of the annotations (which may indicate weak homology, under 30% identity or 50% coverage, that GapMind does not consider). See the links below.
Definition of step lysP
- Curated sequence CH_003129: lysine-specific permease. Lysine:H+ symporter. Forms a stable complex with CadC to allow lysine-dependent adaptation to acidic stress (Rauschmeier et al. 2013). The Salmonella orthologue is 95% identical to the E. coli protein and is highly specific for Lysine. Residues involved in lysine binding have been identified. lysine:H+ symporter. lysine:H+ symporter
- Curated sequence CH_091040: lysine-specific permease. Lysine-specific permease. Lysine permease of 611 aas and 13 putative TMSs, Lyp1
- Curated sequence CH_091257: S-adenosylmethionine permease SAM3. S-adenosylmethionine permease SAM3; S-adenosylmethionine metabolism protein 3. S-adenosylmethionine uptake permease, SAM3 (also takes up polyamines, glutamate, lysine and the toxic S-adenosylmethionine analogue sinefungin)
- Curated sequence CH_091412: uncharacterized amino-acid permease C869.11. The basic amino acid (canavanine sensitivity) transporter, Cat1
- Curated sequence A0A1D8PPG4: Probable lysine/arginine permease CAN3; Basic amino acids permease CAN3
- Curated sequence A0A1D8PPI5: Lysine/arginine permease CAN1; Basic amino acids permease CAN1
- Curated sequence A2RNZ6: Lysine permease LysP
- Curated sequence Q59WU0: Probable lysine/arginine permease CAN2; Basic amino acids permease CAN2
- Curated sequence K7VV21: The lysine specific transporter, LysP of 488 aas and 12 TMSs
- Curated sequence P43059: The high affinity basic amino acid (Arg, Lys, His) transporter, Can1

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).
