FunctionIf-3 binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit and shifts the equilibrum between 70S ribosomes and their 50S and 30S subunits in favor of the free subunits, thus enhancing the availability of 30S subunits on which protein synthesis initiation begins.
ProductProbable initiation factor if-3 InfC
CommentsRv1641, (MTCY06H11.05), len: 201 aa. Probable infC, initiation factor if-3, similar to many e.g. IF3_BACST|P03000 initiation factor if-3 from Bacillus stearothermophilus (171 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 560, E(): 1.9e-27, (50.6% identity in 166 aa overlap). Note that an AUC initiation codon has been used, the Bacillus (IF3_BACSU) and Escherichia coli (IF3_ECOLI) proteins use an AUU initiation codon, and the Myxococcus xanthus (DSG_MYXXA) homolog uses a AUC. Belongs to the if-3 family.
Functional categoryInformation pathways
ProteomicsIdentified in the membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 1D-SDS-PAGE and uLC-MS/MS (See Gu et al., 2003). Identified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). Identified in both the aqueous and detergent phases of Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv membranes using 1-DGE and MALDI-TOF-MS (See Sinha et al., 2005). 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 (See de Souza et al., 2011).
TranscriptomicsmRNA identified by microarray analysis and down-regulated after 96h of starvation (see citation below).
MutantEssential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv in a MtbYM rich medium, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (see Minato et al. 2019). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by analysis of saturated Himar1 transposon libraries (see DeJesus et al. 2017). Essential gene by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
