FunctionInvolved in cysteine biosynthesis [catalytic activity: O3-acetyl-L-serine + H(2)S = L-cysteine + acetate].
ProductCysteine synthase a CysK1 (O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase A) (O-acetylserine (thiol)-lyase A) (CSASE A)
CommentsRv2334, (MT2397, MTCY98.03), len: 310 aa. cysK1, cysteine synthase A, equivalent to O32978|CYSK_MYCLE|ML0839|MLCB22.47 cysteine synthase a from Mycobacterium leprae (310 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1756, E(): 8.6e-96, (85.8% identity in 310 aa overlap). Also highly similar to other cysteine synthases e.g. Q9JQL6|CYSK|NMA0974|NMB0763 putative cysteine synthase from Neisseria meningitidis (serogroup a and B) (310 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1368, E(): 4.6e-73, (66.45% identity in 310 aa overlap); P73410|CYSK_SYNY3|SLR1842 from Synechocystis sp (312 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1310, E(): 1.2e-69, (64.65% identity in 311 aa overlap); Q43725|CYSM_ARATH|OASC|ACS1|AT3G59760|F24G16.30 cysteine synthase (mitochondrial precursor) from Arabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress) (424 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1253, E(): 3.2e-66, (59.2% identity in 309 aa overlap) (has its N-terminus longer 104 aa); etc. Contains PS00901 Cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta-synthase P-phosphate attachment site. Belongs to the cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta-synthase family. Note that previously known as cysK.
Functional categoryIntermediary metabolism and respiration
ProteomicsIdentified in the culture supernatant of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using mass spectrometry (See Mattow et al., 2003). Identified in culture filtrates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2007). Identified by mass spectrometry in Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate and membrane protein fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not whole cell lysates (See de Souza et al., 2011). Translational start site supported by proteomics data (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 by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003).
