General annotation
TypeCDS
FunctionInvolved in methionine biosynthesis. Converts O-succinylhomoserine into homocysteine.
ProductProbable O-succinylhomoserine sulfhydrylase MetZ (OSH sulfhydrylase)
CommentsRv0391, (MTCY04D9.03), len: 406 aa. Probable metZ, O-succinylhomoserine sulfhydrylase, equivalent, but shorter 20 aa in N-terminus, to AA18941.1|AL023514 O-succinylhomoserine sulfhydrylase from Mycobacterium leprae (426 aa). Also highly similar to others e.g. METZ_PSEAE|P55218 o-succinylhomoserine sulfhydrylase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (403 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1175, E(): 0, (47.2% identity in 392 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the trans-sulfuration enzymes family. Could also be a cystathionine gamma-synthase.
Functional categoryIntermediary metabolism and respiration
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate, membrane protein fraction, and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See de Souza et al., 2011).
MutantNon-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). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv on cholesterol, by sequencing of Himar1-based transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
