General annotation
TypeCDS
FunctionThought to be involved in transport of ammonium across the membrane (export). Responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
ProductProbable ammonium-transport integral membrane protein Amt
CommentsRv2920c, (MTCY338.09c), len: 477 aa. Probable amt, ammonium-transport integral membrane protein (ala-, gly-, leu-, val-rich protein), highly similar to others e.g. Q9ZBP6|SC7A1.27 ammonium transporter from Streptomyces coelicolor (448 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1246, E(): 7.3e-67, (54.1% identity in 462 aa overlap); P54146|AMT_CORGL ammonium transport system from Corynebacterium glutamicum (452 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 953, E(): 2.1e-49, (41.45% identity in 475 aa overlap); Q07429|NRGA_BACSU probable ammonium transporter (membrane protein NRGA) from Bacillus subtilis (404 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 721, E(): 0, (44.4% identity in 430 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the AMT1/MEP/NRGA family of ammonium transporters (TC 2.49).
Functional categoryCell wall and cell processes
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the membrane protein fraction and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv but not the culture filtrate (See de Souza 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). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
