摘要
Homology search techniques based on the iterative PSI-BLAST method in combination with various filters for low sequence complexity are applied to assign folds to all Mycoplasma genitalium proteins. The resulting procedure (implemented as a web server) is able to predict at least one domain in 37% of these proteins automatically, with an estimated accuracy higher than 98%. Taking structural features such as coiled coil or transmembrane regions aside, folds can be assigned to more than half of the globular proteins in a bacterium just by iterative sequence comparison.
