Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, PA5388 (caiX)

Annotation Updates

Date	Description	Acknowledgements
May 15, 2009	New comment: Deletion of PA5388 or transposon insertion into the coding sequence results in a strain unable to grow using L-carnitine as a sole carbon source. Based on the requirement of this gene for growth, the PA5388 protein is predicted to be a carnitine-binding adapter for an ABC-family transporter.. New function class: Carbon compound catabolism. New evidence reference (PMID): 19406895.	Matthew J. Wargo (University of Vermont College of Medicine) and Deborah A. Hogan (Dartmouth Medical School)
Nov 6, 2013	New product name: CaiX. New gene name: caiX. New product name confidence: Class 1. New synonym for CDS: carnitine-specific binding protein. New comment : binds carnitine. New function class: Transport of small molecules. New PubMed reference: 19919675.	Chiliang Chen, Department Plant Pathology, Iowa State University
