Gene Rv1089A 
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
      | Type | CDS | 
| Function | The biological conversion of cellulose to glucose generally requires three types of hydrolytic enzymes: (1) endoglucanases which cut internal beta-1,4-glucosidic bonds; (2) exocellobiohydrolases that cut the dissaccharide cellobiose from the nonreducing end of the cellulose polymer chain; (3) beta-1,4-glucosidases which hydrolyze the cellobiose and other short cello-oligosaccharides to glucose [catalytic activity:endohydrolysis of 1,4-beta-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose]. | 
| Product | Probable cellulase CelA2a (endo-1,4-beta-glucanase) (endoglucanase) (carboxymethyl cellulase) | 
| Comments | Rv1089A, len: 34 aa. Probable celA2a, first part of cellulase (endoglucanase), similar to N-terminus of others. This region is a possible MT-complex-specific genomic island (See Becq et al., 2007). | 
| Functional category | Intermediary metabolism and respiration | 
| Mutant | 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). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
