Portal/Head-t-o-tail Case Study Question

| posted 22 Nov, 2018 18:01
I'm following up on Zetzy, an A3, that we used in the Hack-a-thon, and I have a quick question.

I was able to call two genes NKF (that had been labeled otherwise in other phages), and another as head-to-tail adapter based on the Case Study and the table provided at end, that outlines the PDB hit requirements (5A21_D). But the next gene's PDB his is to 5A21_E, which is not listed. The only 'E' version of the entry contains SPP1 proteins 15, 16, and 17.

Any thoughts? 'G/17' is downstream, so could this be 'F/16"?

Steve,
5A21_E is listed along with 5A21_F as a head-to-tail stopper.

Thank you. I see it in the text, now, though the table at the end shows "F."

Thanks, again.

Steve,
you mean the table at the end of the case study, right? That is because that gene only hits F and not E. I am not sure how to avoid the confusion. E is in the Functional Assignment list appropriately. If you have a better suggestion let me know.
