TypeCDS
FunctionInvolved in the cobalamin biosynthesis. Responsible for the amidation of carboxylic groups at position a and C of either cobyrinic acid or hydrogenobrynic acid. NH(2) groups are provided by glutamine, and one molecule of ATP is hydrogenolyzed for each amidation.
ProductProbable cobyrinic acid A,C-diamide synthase CobB
CommentsRv2848c, (MTCY24A1.09), len: 457 aa. Probable cobB, cobyrinic acid A,C-diamide synthase, highly similar to others e.g. O27509|COBB_METTH|MTH1460 from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum (447 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 980, E(): 1.3e-49, (39.65% identity in 454 aa overlap); Q9KBM8|BH1898 from Bacillus halodurans (465 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 928, E(): 1.4e-46, (37.0% identity in 457 aa overlap); O68108|COBB_RHOCA from Rhodobacter capsulatus (Rhodopseudomonas capsulata) (435 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 921, E(): 3.3e-46, (39.35% identity in 437 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the COBB/COBQ family, COBB subfamily.
Functional categoryIntermediary metabolism and respiration
ProteomicsPredicted secreted protein - identified in culture filtrates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv; signal peptide predicted (See Malen et al., 2007). Identified in the cell membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005).
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). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
