ProductPE family protein PE15
CommentsRv1386, (MTCY21B4.03), len: 102 aa. PE15, Member of Mycobacterium tuberculosis PE family (see Brennan & Delogu 2002), similar to many e.g. G913039 ORF 3' of PGRS tandem repeat (polymorphic GC-rich sequence) (100 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 149, E(): 0.0013, (31.5% identity in 92 aa overlap); also similar to Q49943|U1756A (99 aa) (34.7% identity in 95 aa overlap) and G466937|U1620K (100 aa) (36.2% identity in 69 aa overlap). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004). Predicted to be an outer membrane protein (See Song et al., 2008).
Functional categoryPe/ppe
ProteomicsPredicted secreted protein - identified in culture filtrates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv; signal peptide predicted (See Malen et al., 2007). Identified by mass spectrometry in Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the membrane protein fraction and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate; enriched in the membrane fraction and predicted N-terminal signal peptide is uncleaved (See de Souza et al., 2011).
TranscriptomicsmRNA identified by microarray analysis and down-regulated after 4h and 24h of starvation (see Betts et al., 2002).
MutantNon-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv in a MtbYM rich medium, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (see Minato et al. 2019). Disruption of this gene provides a growth advantage 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 and CDC1551 strains (see Sassetti et al., 2003 and Lamichhane et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
