I am also having problems deciding the best functional calls for Gordonia split lysin A genes. In the singleton phage Octobien14 the first lysin gene product shows evidence for being a peptidase domain - possibly C39-likeA - a subfamily of c39 peptidases. The functional call Lysin A, protease M15 domain just doesn't seem quite right. A more generic 'peptidase domain' might be a better fit? For the second lysin A gene, there is evidence for hydrolase: N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase family. Would glycosyl hydrolase be the correct functional call here? Again, a less specific call like hydrolase domain feels safer! Thank you for any advice. HHPRED results are attached. Marie 91Kb

This semester we are annotating Octobien14 - a Gordonia singleton. When using blastP to help inform our start sites many of the 1:1 alignments that we see are from proteins in bacterial hosts and not bacteriophage. In situations where there is a 1:1 alignment with a bacterial protein and all phage protein alignments are not 1:1, should we just document the bacterial protein alignment, the phage protein alignment, or both?

A related question: For annotation of Gordiona phages in PECAAN, is there a preference to which GENEMARK file is uploaded to PECAAN and hence will ultimately be incorporated in the DNA MASTER file. We are using Gordonia bronchialis as our host for the GENEMARK input for PECAAN and I am now wondering if GENEMARK S is a better option. Which one does DNAM use as a default? I see some difference in gene mark calls between PECAAN and out auto annotated DNA master file

We are seeing this too - which leads me to this question.

fogartym1	Where can we access the Web Phamerator from? I can't seem to find a link. Thanks

fogartym1	If there is a function assigned to a gene in Phamerator for some Phage (but not many) can we assume this is a function that can be assigned? Specifically, gp14 of mycobacterioum Swish is annotated as a SAP domain. I do not see SAP domain on the 2015 function assignment list though. Thanks Marie

fogartym1	Thank you both - this is very helpful.
