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 XIII hypothetical protein YMR059c (1679 aa).
  • Caenorhabditis elegans hypothetical protein ZK370.4 (1351 aa).
  • Caenorhabditis elegans hypothetical protein M110.7 (880 aa).
  • Escherichia coli hypothetical protein ychK (314 aa).
  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis hypothetical protein MtCY9C4.03c (583 aa)

These are proteins of variable size which share a domain of about 200 residues. This domain is located at the C-terminal of the eukaryotic members of this family. It can be picked up the database by the following glycine-rich pattern.
