Curated reference (UniProt)

UniProt P9WPQ3 SwissProt · reviewed · Evidence at protein level
UniProt nameBiotin-dependent 3-methylcrotonyl-coenzyme A carboxylase alpha1 subunit [Includes: Biotin carboxylase
EC (curated) EC 6.3.4.14
Curated functionComponent of a biotin-dependent acyl-CoA carboxylase complex. This subunit catalyzes the ATP-dependent carboxylation of the biotin carried by the biotin carboxyl carrier (BCC) domain, resulting in the formation of carboxyl biotin. When associated with the beta1 subunit AccD1, is involved in branched amino-acid catabolism with methylcrotonyl coenzyme A as the substrate.

Orthology-based transfer (eggNOG 5.0.2, diamond). EC/KO/GO/CAZy are computed annotations, not manual curation; cross-check against the primary literature before treating a specific reaction as established.

Conservation & selection (intra-MTBC, 145 209 strains)

pN/pS 0.642 · relaxed/neutral
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 5 synonymous, 9 missense, 0 nonsense, 0 frameshift

pN/pS from segregating SNPs (singletons removed) normalised by possible sites. Low pN/pS = purifying selection (a strong signal that a "hypothetical" is a real, constrained gene). A high pN/pS is ambiguous: relaxed constraint or positive selection (drug resistance, antigenic variation) inflate it; e.g. rpoB/katG/pncA score high here for resistance, not loss of function. A clonal disruption (one allele over a clade) suggests lineage pseudogenisation; a convergent one (many independent alleles) is typical of resistance loss-of-function.

STRING combines evidence channels (neighborhood, fusion, cooccurrence, coexpression, experimental, database, text-mining) into a 0–1000 score. The ctx badge marks edges carried by the genomic-context channels (conserved neighborhood, fusion, phylogenetic co-occurrence), which are independent of orthology and structure and the strongest signal for an unknown gene. The no text-mining column recomputes the score from data alone, so a link that does not depend on the literature is visible. Association is a function hypothesis, not proof: corroborate with the operon context and the primary literature before assigning a function.
