Paragraph that needs revision

[edit]

"The DUF84 region is found in the genome of a bacterium called Vibrio cholerae.[1] The region consists of approximately 183 amino acid residues. V. cholorae causes cholera and stomach flu in humans. The DUF84 region alone is about 160 amino acid residues. It is the only other protein that consists of DUF84 other than PRCC1."

the DUF84 region is found by itself in that organism? that's what that paragraph is trying to say. If so, it needs to be clearer. "It is the only other protein that consists of DUF84 other than PRCC1"; that makes no sense. is DUF84 a protein or a region of a protein? how can a protein consist of DUF84? from what one can read from this article, DUF84 is a region of the protein expressed by PRCC1, in which case PRCC1 has a region known as DUF84, not the other way around.
