Reasons for Current Assignment
The encoded protein plays multiple roles which are implemented by the same domain with a broad
specificity. The roles are "Glutamyl-tRNA synthetase (EC 6.1.1.17)" and "Glutamyl-tRNA(Gln)
synthetase". The protein occurs in 3 subsystems: "Glu-tRNA(Gln) transamidation", "Heme and Siroheme
Biosynthesis", and "tRNA aminoacylation". In "Glu-tRNA(Gln) transamidation", it appears to play a
functional role that we have not associated with any other gene. The function of genes having the
same functional roles have been described in Thermus thermophilus (1541262), Sinorhizobium meliloti (2661539, 8662929), Bacillus subtilis (2120226, 3079749) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10348873). These are homologous proteins which implement the same function.
Compare Regions
The chromosomal region of the focus gene (top) is compared with four similar organisms. The graphic is centered on the focus gene, which is red and numbered 1. Sets of genes with similar sequence are grouped with the same number and color. Genes whose relative position is conserved in at least four other species are functionally coupled and share gray background boxes. The size of the region and the number of genomes may be reset. Click on any arrow in the display to refocus the comparison on that gene. The focus gene always points to the right, even if it is located on the minus strand.
