Description
FS_GIY_YIG or GIY_YIG system was discovered in 2022 (N/A) inside the PICI KpCIXH209 in Klebsiella pneumoniae.
GIY_YIG is a single gene system that encodes for the GIY_YIG protein. The GIY_YIG protein contains the GIY YIG endonuclease domain.
Molecular mechanism
As far as we are aware, the molecular mechanism is unknown. The endonuclease domain suggests a nucleic acid degrading mechanism.
Example of genomic structure
The FS_GIY_YIG is composed of 1 protein: GIY_YIG.
Here is an example found in the RefSeq database:
The FS_GIY_YIG system in Klebsiella pneumoniae (GCF_021389995.1, NZ_CP089989) is composed of 1 protein: GIY_YIG (WP_053067640.1)
