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.

Description
The following uncharacterized proteins have been shown [1] to share regions of similarities:
- Escherichia coli protein aefA.
- Escherichia coli hypothetical protein yggB.
- Escherichia coli hypothetical protein yjeP and HI0195.1, the corresponding Haemophilus influenzae protein.
- Escherichia coli hypothetical protein ynaI.
- Bacillus subtilis hypothetical protein yhdY.
- Helicobacter pylori hypothetical protein HP0415.
- Synechocystis strain PCC 6803 hypothetical protein slr0639.
- Archaeoglobus fulgidus hypothetical protein AF1546.
- Methanococcus jannaschii hypothetical protein MJ0170.
- Methanococcus jannaschii hypothetical protein MJ1143.
The size of these proteins range from 30 to 120 Kd. They all contain a number of transmembrane regions. As a signature pattern, we selected the best conserved region which is located in and just after the last potential transmembrane region.
Last update:December 2004 / Pattern and text revised.
