Conserved hypothetical protein TIGR00162 (ID 644030738) 644030738

Blastn Search

Megablast and blastn gave no results other than the source genome (Halomicrobium mukohataei). When I ran the blast searching for more dissimilar (discontiguous megablast), the results were not helpful - they were either complete genomes or not statistically significant.

Blastx Search

This search provided a number of results, however many were hypothetical proteins. A number of results were cupin conserved barrel domain proteins, however I was unable to determine if any of these results were relevant.

GC Content

The GC content for this gene is 70% and the GC content for our species' genome is 66%. These percentages are fairly similar, thus ruling out the possibility the possibility that this is an outside gene. There may however exist paralogs and orthologs to this gene.
