Mining the Flavoproteome of Brucella ovis, the Brucellosis causing agent in Ovis aries [PDF]
Flavoproteins are a diverse class of proteins that are mostly enzymes and contain as cofactors flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and/or flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), which enable them to participate in a wide range of physiological reactions.

Assessing in silico the recruitment and functional spectrum of bacterial enzymes from secondary metabolism [PDF]
Background: Microbes, plants, and fungi synthesize an enormous number of metabolites exhibiting rich chemical diversity. For a high-level classification, metabolism is subdivided into primary (PM) and secondary (SM) metabolism.
