Gene Rv0240
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Unknown |
| Product | Possible toxin VapC24. Contains PIN domain. |
| Comments | Rv0240, (MTV034.06), len: 145 aa. Possible vapC24, toxin, part of toxin-antitoxin (TA) operon with Rv0239, contains PIN domain, weak similarity with Rv3697c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (145 aa). See Arcus et al. 2005. FASTA scores: opt: 145, E(): 7.6e-05, (28.0% identity in 143 aa overlap). |
| Functional category | Virulence, detoxification, adaptation |
| Proteomics | Identified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). Identified by mass spectrometry in whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate or membrane protein fraction (See de Souza et al., 2011). |
| Transcriptomics | mRNA identified by microarray analysis and down-regulated after 4h and 24h of starvation (see citation below). |
| Mutant | Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv in a MtbYM rich medium, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (see Minato et al. 2019). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by analysis of saturated Himar1 transposon libraries (see DeJesus et al. 2017). Non essential gene by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011). Found to be deleted (partially or completely) in one or more clinical isolates (See Tsolaki et al., 2004). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
