Structural assignments to the <i>Mycoplasma genitalium</i> proteins show extensive gene duplications and domain rearrangements

Abstract excerpt

The parasitic bacterium Mycoplasma genitalium has a small, reduced genome with close to a basic set of genes. As a first step toward determining the families of protein domains that form the products of these genes, we have used the multiple sequence programs PSI-BLAST and GEANFAMMER to match the sequences of the 467 gene products of M. genitalium to the sequences of the domains that form proteins of known...
