Gene Rv2279
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Required for the transposition of the insertion element IS6110. |
| Product | Probable transposase |
| Comments | Rv2279, (MTCY339.31c), len: 328 aa. Probable IS6110 transposase. Identical to many other M. tuberculosis IS6110 transposase subunits. The transposase described here may be made by a frame shifting mechanism during translation that fuses Rv2278 and Rv2279, the sequence UUUUAAAG (directly upstream of Rv2279) maybe responsible for such a frameshifting event (see McAdam et al., 1990). Start changed since first submission (+ 16 aa). |
| Functional category | Insertion seqs and phages |
| Mutant | Non-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). Found to be deleted (partially or completely) in one or more clinical isolates (See Tsolaki et al., 2004). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
