Beginning with BLASTp<ref>National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)[Internet]. Bethesda (MD): National Library of Medicine (US), National Center for Biotechnology Information; [1988] – [cited 2022 April 23].</ref>, we queried the FASTA sequence for our protein, PDB ID 3HDT. Our query sequence aligned with the NK superfamily and showed a high degree of overlap indicating that this protein is likely a member. The importance of this is that the cytidylate kinase family is a member of the NK superfamily, supporting our hypothesis that 3HDT is a cytidylate kinase. Additionally, the query hits showed several cytidylate kinase-like family proteins almost completely aligning with our protein, 3HDT.
