We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.
Amos Bairoch

Description

The following uncharacterized proteins have been shown [1] to share regions of similarities:

  • Yeast chromosome X hypothetical protein YJL126w.
  • Yeast chromosome XII hypothetical protein YLR351c.
  • Fission yeast hypothetical protein SpAC26A3.11.
  • Escherichia coli hypothetical protein ybeM.
  • Bacillus subtilis hypothetical protein yhcX.
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis hypothetical protein MtCY20G9.06c.
  • Synechocystis strain PCC 6803 hypothetical protein sll0601.
  • A Pseudomonas fluorescens hypothetical protein in pqqF 5'region.
  • A Staphylococcus hypothetical protein in agr operon.

Except for yhcX which is larger, these are protein of about 30 to 35 Kd which contain, in their central section, a well conserved region centered on a cysteine residue.
