FunctionInvolved in menaquinone biosynthesis (at the first step) [catalytic activity 1: isochorismate + 2-ketoglutarate = 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate + pyruvate + CO(2)] [catalytic activity 2: 2-oxoglutarate = succinate semialdehyde + CO(2)].
ProductProbable bifunctional menaquinone biosynthesis protein MenD : 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase (SHCHC synthase) + 2-oxoglutarate decarboxylase (alpha- ketoglutarate decarboxylase) (KDC)
CommentsRv0555, (MTCY25D10.34), len: 554 aa. Probable menD, menaquinone biosynthesis protein, including 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase and 2-oxoglutarate decarboxylase activities. Equivalent to NP_302478.1|NC_002677 putative 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase / 2-oxoglutarate decarboxylase from Mycobacterium leprae (556 aa). Also similar to others e.g. MEND_BACSU|P23970 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase from Bacillus subtilis (548 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 488, E(): 2.3e-21, (34.3% identity in 545 aa overlap); etc. Cofactor: thiamine pyrophosphate.
Functional categoryIntermediary metabolism and respiration
ProteomicsIdentified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). Identified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the membrane protein fraction or whole cell lysates (See de Souza et al., 2011).
MutantEssential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv in a MtbYM rich medium, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (see Minato et al. 2019). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by analysis of saturated Himar1 transposon libraries (see DeJesus et al. 2017). Essential gene by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
