Reasons for Current Assignment
We have assigned the function "DNA topoisomerase I (EC 5.99.1.2)" to the encoded protein. The
protein occurs in 2 subsystems: "Conserved gene cluster associated with Met-tRNA formyltransferase",
and "DNA topoisomerases, Type I, ATP-independent". In "Conserved gene cluster associated with
Met-tRNA formyltransferase", it appears to play a functional role that we have not associated with
any other gene. In "DNA topoisomerases, Type I, ATP-independent", 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 Schizosaccharomyces pombe (10572171), Drosophila melanogaster (10636841), Homo sapiens (8622991), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (15889139, 15899853, 2546682, 8336724), Thermotoga sp. (8547314), Haemophilus influenzae (8635745) and Mus musculus (9786843). 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.
