      | Type | CDS | 
| Function | Function unknown | 
| Product | Possible toxin MazF1 | 
| Comments | Rv0456A, len: 93 aa. Possible mazF1, toxin, part of toxin-antitoxin (TA) operon with Rv0456B (See Pandey and Gerdes, 2005; Zhu et al., 2006); N-terminus highly similar to N-terminal part of P71650|Rv2801c|MT2869|MTCY16B7.42 conserved hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (118 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 303, E(): 1e-14, (60.44% identity in 91 aa overlap). Also some similarity in part with other hypothetical proteins e.g. Q9PHH8|XFA0027 Plasmid maintenance protein from Xylella fastidiosa (108 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 169, E(): 3.9e-05, (50.820% identity in 61 aa overlap). |
