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 categoryVirulence, detoxification, adaptation
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).
