lysZ-like proteins?

| posted today, 13:04
After Tom Bernhardt's talk at the symposium, is there an annotation we can use for lysZ-like proteins? For example, we have Atlantica gp21 (CDS 16204-16494):
    Canonical structure (per Tom's talk) is a N-terminal TMD + a variable-length helical domain. gp21 has a N-terminal TMD (approx. residues 5-25, annotated as "TMD" rather than "signal" by DeepTMHMMM, confirmed with SOSUI); AlphaFold predicts extended alpha helical domain
    High-probability, near-full-length hits on HHPred to bacterial FtsB (e.g. 6H9N_B; cell division protein with one TMD; sticks N terminal domain in the membrane & associates other cell division complex stuff on the C terminal domain) and to phage spanins (e.g. P39504). Similar length (97 aa) to these proteins (94-121 aa).
    Located at the end of the tail assembly genes, immediately before endolysin
