FunctionDetoxification of organic peroxides.
ProductProbable peroxiredoxin AhpE
CommentsRv2238c, (MTCY427.19c), len: 153 aa. Probable ahpE, peroxiredoxin. Similarity to many members of AHPC/TSA family e.g. sp|Q96291|BAS1_ARATH 2-CYS peroxiredoxin BAS1 precursor (265 aa). FASTA score: opt: 275, E(): 2.7e-12; 35.0% identity in 143 aa overlap.
Functional categoryVirulence, detoxification, adaptation
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the membrane protein fraction (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 for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
