Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, PA3857 (pcs)

Annotation Updates

Date	Description	Acknowledgements
Nov 27, 2002	Annotation of a gene previously described as phosphatidylcholine synthase (class 2), with no gene name. New gene name: pcs. New protein name confidence: class 1. Added homology: 39% identity to Pcs[S. meliloti]. New genomic context: solely responsible for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine. New structure features: contains the motif characteristic for CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase. Added evidence reference (PubMed ID): 12169604. Changes approved by reference author (Paula Wilderman and Michael Vasil, Department of Microbiology, University of Colorado Health Sciences Centre, Denver, CO, USA).	Raymond C. Lo and Fiona S.L. Brinkman, Simon Fraser University, Canada (based on literature review)
Sep 17, 2001	Annotation of a gene previously described as a conserved hypothetical protein, with no gene name. New protein name: phosphatidylcholine synthase. New function: Fatty acid and phospholipid metabolism. New homology: 59% similar to phosphatidylcholine synthase [Sinorhizobium meliloti]. New evidence reference (PubMed ID): 20317087.
