For CARP2, we provide the first functional assignment for this highly conserved eukaryotic flagellar protein of previously unknown function.
Gene Ontology classification of AS genes revealed functional assignment of these genes in many biological processes with diverse molecular functions.
Combined omics techniques lead to the functional assignment of four enzymes involved in a new methionine salvage pathway linking polyamine metabolism with isoprenoid biosynthesis.
Functional assignment of EMR2 by support vector machine (SVM) revealed that along with transporter activity, several novel functions are predicted.
Next, functional assignment was done for 29,624 rice FST genes based on functional classification information from the MapMan Toolkit.
However, a large fraction of these newly discovered genes do not have a functional assignment.
Functional assignment of the ORFs was carried out by BLASTP searches against four Brucella genomes.
However, using these probabilistic networks to produce a functional assignment remains a hard computational problem.
The MapMan Bin system [45] is used for functional assignment and all assignments for identified proteins were verified manually.
Ultimately, this leads to the interesting question of why evolution would be so parsimonious in the functional assignment of sequence.
Functional assignment, identification of membrane-spanning domains, and determination of paralogous gene families were performed as previously described [37] [39].
