Type: | Family | Name: | Putative selenium metabolism protein SsnA |
Description: | Members of this protein family are found exclusively in genomes that contain putative set of labile selenium-dependent enzyme accessory proteins as well as homologues of a labile selenium-dependent purine hydroxylase. A mutant in this gene in Escherichia colihad improved stationary phase viability. The function of this protein is unknown. | Short Name: | Se_metab_SsnA |
