FunctionPeroxide detoxification
ProductProbable peroxidoxin BcpB
CommentsRv1608c, (MTV046.06), len: 154 aa. Probable bcpB, peroxidoxin or bacterioferritin comigratory protein, similar to many, e.g. AE0003|ECAE000335_4 bacterioferritin comigratory protein from Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 (156 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 329, E(): 1.2e-16, (38.2% identity in 152 aa overlap); Z97179|MLCL383_22 Mycobacterium leprae cosmid L383 (161 aa) (40.2% identity in 132 aa overlap). Also similar to Rv2428 AhpC, alkyl hydroperoxide reductase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis; and other Mycobacterium tuberculosis putative peroxidoxins Rv2521, Rv2238c, Rv1932.
Functional categoryVirulence, detoxification, adaptation
ProteomicsIdentified 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 (See de Souza et al., 2011). Translational start site supported by proteomics data (See de Souza et al., 2011) (See Kelkar 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, but essential for in vitro growth on cholesterol; by sequencing of Himar1-based transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
