ProductConserved hypothetical protein
CommentsRv2908c, (MTCY274.40c), len: 80 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, equivalent to O33015|YT08_MYCLE from Mycobacterium leprae (80 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 492, E(): 3.1e-29, (93.75% identity in 80 aa overlap). Also highly similar to others e.g. O69880|YE09_STRCO from Streptomyces coelicolor (79 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 356, E(): 3e-19, (71.6% identity in 74 aa overlap); Q9KA12|BH2482 protein from Bacillus halodurans (76 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 220, E(): 2.9e-09, (48.6% identity in 72 aa overlap); O31738|YLQC_BACSU hypothetical 9.1 KDA protein from Bacillus subtilis (81 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 172, E(): 1e-05, (39.2% identity in 74 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the UPF0109 family.
Functional categoryConserved hypotheticals
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate or membrane protein fraction (See de Souza et al., 2011). Translational start site supported by proteomics data (See de Souza et al., 2011) (See Kelkar et al., 2011).
MutantEssential gene (growth defect) for in vitro growth of H37Rv in a MtbYM rich medium, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (see Minato et al. 2019). Disruption of this gene results in growth defect of H37Rv in vitro, 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).
