  1. The complete set of proteins from the NCBI 36 assembly of the human genome was searched as described in the text. The 'Family' column reports the name of the family whose HMM scored best when compared to the query. When possible, the family name is constituted by, or includes, the four-digits EC number of the corresponding activity. Note that the layout of the present table recapitulates the output provided by B6 database's site, with some modifications. In particular, the occurrence of protein isoforms derived from some genes was obtained by analysis of the crude program results. The official names of the genes corresponding to the transcripts and their chromosomal locations were obtained from NCBI.
  2. (a) This gene encodes the subunit LCB1 of human serine palmitoyltransferase. This subunit is not itself a PLP-dependent enzyme, but is homologous to a second subunit (LCB2) that is PLP-dependent [24].
  3. (b) The products of genes AGXT2L1 and AGXT2L2 are homologs of the mitochondrial alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGXT2), but were recently shown to lack this activity [25].
  4. (c) The murine homolog of this gene was shown to encode an enzyme with phospho-lyase activity [26].
  5. (d) This gene is homolog to the plant 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) synthase, but the gene product was shown to lack this activity [27].
  6. (e) Genes ADC and AZIN1 encode ornithine decarboxylase antizyme inhibitors, i.e. proteins homologous to ornithine decarboxylase, but devoid of ornithine decarboxylase activity, that are involved in regulation of polyamine biosynthesis [28, 29]. The human ADC, contrary to its mouse ortholog, retains a conserved lysine at the active site.
