conserved hypothetical protein A pair of adjacent genes, ablAB (acetyl-beta-lysine biosynthesis) encodes lysine 2,3-aminomutase and beta-lysine acetyltransferase in methanogenic archaea. Homologous pairs, possibly with identical function, occur in a wide range of species, including Bacillus subtilis. This model describes a conserved hypothetical protein, small in size, with a phylogenetic distribution moderately well correlated to that of the acetyltransferase family. This protein family is also described as DUF2196 and COG4895. The function is unknown. [Hypothetical proteins, Conserved]
