Team searches for prokaryotic small #proteins in #HMP dataset that are traditionally hard to detect 👉 Describe more than 4000 conserved protein families, most of which are novel (90% have no known domain, and ~1/2 are not represented in reference genomes):biorxiv.org/content/early/… ImageImageImageImage
Small #proteins identified by the team are 👉 potentially involved in crosstalk w/ the host or other #microbial cells, may be subject to horizontal #gene transfer...and may be related to defense against #phage or other bacteria (among other functions!): biorxiv.org/content/biorxi… Image
Also, important previous discoveries by Ami S Bhatt and @kyrpides (both authors of the small protein paper) 👉 are featured in my recent article: “My favorite 2018 #papers that impact the study of chronic inflammatory disease”☝️Check them out: microbeminded.com/2018/12/30/myf… ImageImage
