Gene Rv0665
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Unknown |
| Product | Possible toxin VapC8 |
| Comments | Rv0665, (MTCI376.11c), len: 112 aa. Possible vapC8, toxin, part of toxin-antitoxin (TA) operon with Rv0664, contains PIN domain (See Arcus et al. 2005; Pandey and Gerdes, 2005). Similar to others in Mycobacterium tuberculosis e.g. Rv0627 (135 aa), and Rv0595c. This region is a possible MT-complex-specific genomic island (See Becq et al., 2007). |
| 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 strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
