I noticed that the genome of M.fijinensis, the number of predicted proteins is 13,107 but the number of proteins with KOG keeps increasing each year. Is it because KOG database is constantly getting updated?
In this publication from 2012
http://journals.plos.org/plospathogens/article?id=10.1371/journal.ppat.1003037#s4
the number of M.fijiensis proteins with KOG is 6595
In this publication from August 2016
http://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.1005876#abstract0
the number of M.fijiensis proteins with KOG is 6676
In this publication from September 2016
http://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.1005904#sec013
the number of M.fijiensis proteins with KOG is 7323
And, in the JGI website http://genome.jgi.doe.gov/cgi-bin/kogBrowser?db=Mycfi2 the number of M.fijiensis proteins with KOG is 7686
Could someone please explain?
