My full name gives me a protein sequence from Fission Yeast.

I got a protein found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae or baker's yeast :)

When I put in just my first name, I get a protein sequence from "Shigella flexneri." Which is a diarrhea-causing bacteria. When I put in my full name, I get "Cryptococcus neoformans," a yeast which "is often found in pigeon excrement." I think it's trying to tell me something.
