For the task I used BAC73082.1 putative globin-like protein [1] from my first term.
- COG ID: COG2346
- E-value: 2.72e-39
- Interval: 8-134
- Residues: 133
- Name: Truncated hemoglobin YjbI. It is hemoglobin-like protein that exhibits a low peroxidase activity, but very high oxygen affinity (which may rule out the possibility that it is involved in oxygen transport).[2]
- Functional category: P - Inorganic ion transport and metabolism
GO visualization
Using COGNAT [3] with Neighborhood size 11, Taxonomy NO (default) and 10% Occurence Threshold (default 20% for OT and 9 for NS were changed because there weren't any COGs around COG2346), I was able to visualize genomic environment of COG2346. Part of it is pictured below. Full-size (PDF) can be downloaded.

All in all, I doubt that this environment can be called conservative.
Putative globin-like protein of Streptomyces avermitilis in terms of GO
Using AmiGO BLAST[4], I found the most similar result to my protein. It's uncharacterised protein.

From the tables above we can conclude that with the enough amount of data it could be possible that this particular uncharacterised protein is similar to mine. I decided to choose uncharacterised protein because among all other results there wasn't any from the same organism. However, it is posiible that there are some with the simialar functions.
