ProductProbable lipid-transfer protein Ltp1
CommentsRv2790c, (MTV002.55c), len: 401 aa. Probable ltp1, lipid-transfer protein, highly similar to many eukaryotic sterol-carrier proteins/lipid-transfer protein precursors (see Ossendorp & Wirtz 1993) e.g. O62742|SCP2 sterol carrier protein X from Oryctolagus cuniculus (Rabbit) (547 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1710, E(): 6e-102, (63.7% identity in 394 aa overlap); Q9QW19 3-oxoacyl-CoA thiolase homolog (fragment) from Rattus sp. (405 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1696, E(): 3.8e-101, (63.2% identity in 394 aa overlap); P11915|NLTP_RAT|SCP2|SCP-2 nonspecific lipid-transfer protein precursor from Rattus norvegicus (Rat) (547 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1696, E(): 4.8e-101, (63.2% identity in 394 aa overlap); P32020|NLTP_MOUSE|SCP2|SCP-2 nonspecific lipid-transfer protein precursor from Mus musculus (Mouse) (547 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1681, E(): 4.3e-100, (62.7% identity in 394 aa overlap); etc. Contains PS00098 Thiolases acyl-enzyme intermediate signature and PS00737 Thiolases signature 2. Also similar to other M. tuberculosis proteins e.g. O06144|Rv1627c|MTCY01B2.19c (402 aa) (35.8% identity in 413 aa overlap).
Functional categoryCell wall and cell processes
ProteomicsIdentified in the cell wall fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). 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, membrane protein fraction, and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See de Souza et al., 2011).
TranscriptomicsmRNA identified by microarray analysis and down-regulated after 24h of starvation (see Betts et al., 2002).
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 and CDC1551 strains (see Sassetti et al., 2003 and Lamichhane et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
