tail spike-like protein

Link to this post \| posted 31 Dec, 2017 16:45
smolloy123	gp 23 in Flapper, a CR1 phage, has a decent match in HHPRED (99% prob, 46% cov, 8E-18 eval) with a tail spike protein (tailspike gp27; Beta-helix, tailspike, Lyase; HET: NA, ACT, EDO; 1.52A {Pseudomonas phage phi297}). This is not an approved function. Yet I also found this gene called as such in SuperSulley (gp22), a CR2 genome. Veronique QC'd this genome and she is one of most experienced SMART members, so is this an approved function? Veronique or Welkin have any thoughts on how to call this gene? Thanks!
