Abstract

Although short open reading frames (sORFs) are present in all genomes, they have often been missed in annotations. Nevertheless, a small variety of peptides involved in different pathways were identified serendipitously and investigated in more detail. Among them are type I toxins, nucleic acid and metal chaperones, membrane components, stabilizing factors of large protein complexes, and regulatory peptides.
