FunctionDNA primase is the polymerase that synthesizes small RNA primers for the okazaki fragments on both template strands replication FORKS during chromosomal DNA synthesis.
ProductProbable DNA primase DnaG
CommentsRv2343c, (MTCY98.12c), len: 639 aa. Probable dnaG, DNA primase, equivalent to O52200|PRIM_MYCSM|DNAG DNA primase from Mycobacterium smegmatis (636 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 3504, E(): 5.5e-202, (81.55% identity in 639 aa overlap); and Q9CCG2|DNAG|ML0833 DNA primase from Mycobacterium leprae (642 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 3443, E(): 2.5e-198, (80.4% identity in 642 aa overlap). Also highly similar to many DNA primases e.g. Q9S1N4|PRIM_STRCO|DNAG|SC7A8.07c from Streptomyces coelicolor (641 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1899, E(): 5.1e-106, (47.9% identity in 643 aa overlap); P74893|PRIM_SYNP7|DNAG from Synechococcus sp. strain PCC 7942 (Anacystis nidulans R2) (616 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 860, E(): 6.6e-44, (35.3% identity in 513 aa overlap); P05096|PRIM_BACSU from Bacillus subtilis (603 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 800, E(): 2.5e-40, (33.7% identity in 430 aa overlap); etc.
Functional categoryInformation pathways
ProteomicsIdentified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005).
TranscriptomicsDNA microarrays detect expression in M. tuberculosis H37Rv in vivo (in BALB/c and SCID mice) but not in vitro (in 7H9 medium) (See Talaat et al., 2004).
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).
