AbiH

Description

AbiH a system discovered in 1996 (N/A) .

AbiH 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) . Even though, their name corresponds to an abortive infection, their mechanism of action does not necessarily correspond to an abortive infection. For the abortive infection, phenotype AbiH is classified as unknown in (N/A) .

This system is a single gene system with no known domain (except its own PFAM).

Molecular mechanism

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

Example of genomic structure

The AbiH is composed of 1 protein: AbiH.

Here is an example found in the RefSeq database:

The AbiH system in Bacteroides faecium (GCF_012113595.1, NZ_CP050831) is composed of 1 protein: AbiH (WP_167962074.1)
