Representation of the criteria used to select genes encoding proteins with an elevated likelihood of self-assembly (including Q63NT7). (a) Graphical representation of the rationale for structural investigations on Q63NT7, where the selection criteria are depicted as a Venn diagram as in Beeby et al. (2009). Several representative operons with respective organisms of origin obeying the selection criteria are highlighted on the right. The Q63NT7-encoding gene is depicted by a bold arrow. DUF1843-containing genes are shown as red arrows and nonhomologous genes are shown as white arrows. (b) Graphical representation of the per-residue conservation of Q63NT7 using ConSurf (Ashkenazy et al., 2016). |
