ProductProbable UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanyl-D-glutamyl-2,6-diaminopimelate-D-alanyl-D-alanyl ligase MurF
CommentsRv2157c, (MTCY270.11), len: 510 aa. Probable murF, UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanyl-D-glutamyl-2,6-diaminopimelate-D-alanyl-D-alanyl ligase (UDP-murnac-pentapeptide synthetase) (see citation below), also related to other Mycobacterium tuberculosis mur gene products. FASTA best: MURF_ECOLI|P11880 (452 aa), opt: 515, E(): 2.6e-24, (31.9% identity in 511 aa overlap).
Functional categoryCell wall and cell processes
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate or membrane protein fraction (See de Souza et al., 2011).
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).
