AbiG

Contributors: Florian Tesson

Description

AbiG was discovered in 1996 on the plasmid pCI750 of Lactococcus lactis (N/A) .

AbiG is one of the so-called "Abi" systems for "Abortive infection" discovered in the 90's in research related to the dairy industry (N/A) . AbiG is classified as abortive infection in (N/A) .

AbiG is composed of two genes AbiGi and AbiGii.

Molecular mechanism

As far as we are aware, the molecular mechanism is unknown.

Example of genomic structure

The AbiG is composed of 2 proteins: AbiGi and AbiGii.

Here is an example found in the RefSeq database:

The AbiG system in Staphylococcus simulans (GCF_900474685.1, NZ_LS483313) is composed of 2 proteins AbiGi (WP_103364194.1) AbiGii (WP_070462993.1)

Distribution of the system among prokaryotes

Among the NaN complete genomes of RefSeq, the AbiG is detected in NaN genomes (NaN %). The system was detected in NaN different species.
