FunctionInvolved in excretion of nitrite produced by the dissimilatory reduction of nitrate.
ProductProbable nitrite extrusion protein 1 NarK1 (nitrite facilitator 1)
CommentsRv2329c, (MTCY3G12.05), len: 515 aa. Probable narK1, nitrite extrusion protein, possibly member of major facilitator superfamily (MFS). Equivalent to O32974|MLCB22.41c|nark|ML0844 putative nitrite extrusion protein from Mycobacterium leprae (517 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 2224, E(): 1.9e-129, (69.3% identity in 488 aa overlap). Also highly similar to others e.g. P94933 nitrite extrusion protein from Mycobacterium fortuitum (471 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1969, E(): 8.6e-114, (62.1% identity in 459 aa overlap); P37758|NARU_ECOLI nitrite extrusion protein 2 from Escherichia coli strain K12 (462 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 792, E(): 2.3e-41, (36.95% identity in 476 aa overlap); P10903|NARK_ECOLI nitrite extrusion protein (nitrite facilitator 1) from Escherichia coli strain K12 (463 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 784, E(): 7e-41, (35.3% identity in 468 aa overlap); etc. Also similar to RV0261c|Z86089|MTCY6A4_5 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (469 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 2000, E(): 1.1e-115, (62.6% identity in 470 aa overlap). Belongs to the nark/NASA family of transporters.
Functional categoryCell wall and cell processes
TranscriptomicsDNA microarrays show higher level of expression in M. tuberculosis H37Rv than in phoP|Rv0757 mutant (See Walters et al., 2006).
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).
