MJ1157 and Zadh2 are 2 proteins of unknown functions. Sequence alignment analysis showed that the former is possibly involved in the thiolation of uridine of tRNA while the latter is possibly involved in countering oxidative stress in cells via its oxidoreductase domain. To this latter protein, expe...
