Gene Rv0589 (mce2)
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Unknown, but thought to be involved in host cell invasion. |
| Product | Mce-family protein Mce2A |
| Comments | Rv0589, (MTCY19H5.33c), len: 404 aa. Mce2A; belongs to 24-membered Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mce protein family (see citations below), highly similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins P72013|MCE1|Rv0169|MTCI28.09|mce1A (454 aa); O53967|MCE3|Rv1966|MTV051.04|mce3A (425 aa); etc. Also highly similar to others e.g. AAD52105.1|AF113402_1|AF113402 mycobacterial cell entry protein from Mycobacterium bovis BCG (454 aa); NP_302656.1|NC_002677 putative cell invasion protein from Mycobacterium leprae (441 aa); CAC12798.1|AL445327 putative secreted protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (418 aa); etc. Also highly similar, but longer 21 aa, to P72013|CAA50257.1|X70901|MTCI28.08 Mcep protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (432 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1324, E(): 0, (62.6% identity in 436 aa overlap). Contains a possible N-terminal signal or anchor sequence. Predicted to be an outer membrane protein (See Song et al., 2008). Note that previously known as mce2. |
| Functional category | Virulence, detoxification, adaptation |
| 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 and CDC1551 strains (see Sassetti et al., 2003 and Lamichhane et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011). M. tuberculosis H37Rv Rv0589 mutant growth in vitro growth is comparable to wild-type; BALB/c mice survive longer when infected with mutant than with wild-type; lung pathology is reduced or delayed; growth in BALB/c mice is reduced (See Gioffre et al., 2005). M. tuberculosis H37Rv Rv0587-Rv0594 mutant growth in liquid broth, RAW macrophages, and C57BL/6 mouse lungs is comparable to wild-type; RAW macrophages infected with mutant produce less TNF-alpha and IL-6 than with wild-type; C57BL/6 mice infected with mutant live longer than those infected with wild-type; lung pathology in C57BL/6 mice infected with mutant is reduced compared to wild-type (See Marjanovic et al., 2009).
