Functional Annotation of Hypothetical Proteins From the Enterobacter cloacae B13 Strain and Its Association With Pathogenicity.

ABSTRACT: Enterobacter cloacae B13 strain is a rod-shaped gram-negative bacterium that belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family. It can cause respiratory and urinary tract infections, and is responsible for several outbreaks in hospitals. E. cloacae has become an important pathogen and an emerging global threat because of its opportunistic and multidrug resistant ability. However, little knowledge is present about a large portion of its proteins and functions. Therefore, functional annotation of the hypothetical proteins (HPs) can provide an improved understanding of this organism and its virulence activity. The workflow in the study included several bioinformatic tools which were utilized to characterize functions, family and domains, subcellular localization, physiochemical pr
