FunctionPotentially involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of a polyketide molecule which may be involved in secondary metabolism
ProductProbable polyketide synthase Pks8
CommentsRv1662, (MTCY275.01-MTCY06H11.27), len: 1602 aa. Probable pks8, polyketide synthase, similar to many polyketide synthases e.g. ERY2_SACER|Q03132 erythronolide synthase, modules 3 and 4 from Saccharopolyspora erythraea (Streptomyces erythraeus) (3567 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 3319, E(): 0, (45.8% identity in 1619 aa overlap). Also similar to other Mycobacterium tuberculosis probable polyketide synthases e.g. pks7 and pks12. Contains PS00606 Beta-ketoacyl synthases active site and PS01162 Quinone oxidoreductase/zeta-crystallin signature. Note that the similarity extends into the downstream ORF Rv1663 (MTCY275.02), and this could be accounted for by a frameshift, although the sequence has been checked and no discrepancy was found.
Functional categoryLipid metabolism
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in M. tuberculosis H37Rv-infected guinea pig lungs at 30 days but not 90 days (See Kruh et al., 2010).
MutantEssential 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). Essential gene by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv and CDC1551 strains (see Sassetti et al., 2003 and Lamichhane et al., 2003). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
