ProductMce-family protein Mce2B
CommentsRv0590, (MTCY19H5.32c), len: 275 aa. Mce2B; belongs to 24-membered Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mce protein family (see citations below), highly similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins O07414|Rv0170|MTCI28.10|mce1B (346 aa); O53968|Rv1967|MTV051.05|mce3B (342 aa); etc. Also highly similar to others e.g. NP_302657.1|NC_002677 putative secreted protein from Mycobacterium leprae (346 aa); P45391|YRBD_ECOLI hypothetical 19.6 kDa protein from Escherichia coli (183 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 160, E(): 0.00099, (28.3% identity in 166 aa overlap); P45029|YRBD_HAEIN|HI1085 hypothetical protein from Haemophilus influenzae (167 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 135, E():0.035, (25.9% identity in 143 aa overlap); etc. Contains possible N-terminal signal or anchor sequence. Predicted to be an outer membrane protein (See Song et al., 2008).
Functional category-
ProteomicsIdentified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005).
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 for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011). 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).
