ProductProbable fatty-acid-CoA racemase Far
CommentsRv0855, (MTV043.48), len: 359 aa. Probable far, fatty acid-CoA racemase, highly similar to CAB08122.1|Z94723 unknown protein from Mycobacterium leprae (253 aa) (C-terminus shorter). Also similar to many eukaryotic and bacteria racemases e.g. T35425 probable fatty acid CoA racemase from Streptomyces coelicolor (387 aa); P70473|AMAC_RAT alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (2-methylacyl-CoA racemase) (2-arylpropionyl-CoA epimerase) from Rattus norvegicus (Rat) (382 aa); NP_103687.1|NC_002678 probable fatty acid Co-a racemase from Mesorhizobium loti (389 aa); etc. Also similar to proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis e.g. Rv1143|MTCI65.10|MCR from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (360 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1373, E(): 0, (56.8% identity in 359 aa overlap), Rv1866|MTCY359.07 (C-terminal half) (778 aa), Rv3272 (360 aa).
Functional categoryLipid metabolism
ProteomicsIdentified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). Identified by mass spectrometry in whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate or membrane protein fraction (See de Souza et al., 2011).
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 by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
