TypeCDS
FunctionThis enzyme acts on epoxides (alkene oxides, oxiranes) and arene oxides. Plays a role in xenobiotic metabolism by degrading potential toxic epoxides. Also determines steady-state levels of physiological mediators.
ProductProbable epoxide hydrolase EphB (epoxide hydratase)
CommentsRv1938, (MTCY09F9.26c), len: 356 aa. Probable ephB, epoxide hydrolase (see citation below), similar to many e.g. G1109600 ATSEH (321 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 442, E(): 1.2e-21 (33.1% identity in 356 aa overlap); etc. Also similar to many other M. tuberculosis hypothetical epoxide hydrolases e.g. Rv3617, Rv3670, Rv0134, etc.
Functional categoryVirulence, detoxification, adaptation
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in M. tuberculosis H37Rv-infected guinea pig lungs at 90 days but not 30 days (See Kruh et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the membrane protein fraction or whole cell lysates (See de Souza 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, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011). M. tuberculosis Erdman Rv1936-Rv1941 mutant is more susceptible to ROS-generating compounds; shows reduced growth and persistence in C57BL/6 and iNOS-/- mice but not Phox -/- mice; pathology in infected C57BL/6 mice is reduced; mutant shows growth defect in activated J774A.1 murine, human peripheral blood monocyte-derived, and mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM), and BMDM from Phox -/- and iNOS -/- mice (See Cirillo et al., 2009).
