General annotation
TypeCDS
FunctionInvolved in base excision repair (repair of oxidized purines). This enzyme may play a significant role in processes leading to recovery from mutagenesis and/or cell death by alkylating agents [catalytic activity hydrolysis of DNA containing ring-opened N7-methylguanine residues, releasing 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-(N-methyl)formamidopyrimide].
ProductProbable formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase Fpg (FAPY-DNA glycosylase)
CommentsRv2924c, (MTCY338.13c), len: 289 aa. Probable fpg (alternate gene name: mutM), formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (see citation below), equivalent to O69470|FPG_MYCLE formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase from Mycobacterium leprae (282 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1563, E(): 1.3e-96, (80.6% identity in 289 aa overlap). Also highly similar to other formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylases e.g. Q9ZBQ6|FPG_STRCO from Streptomyces coelicolor (286 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1047, E(): 2.9e-62, (57.55% identity in 292 aa overlap); P95744|FPG_SYNEN from Synechococcus elongatus naegeli (284 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 569, E(): 1.9e-30, (37.95% identity in 290 aa overlap); P05523|FPG_ECOLI|MUTM|FPG|B3635 from Escherichia coli strain K12 (269 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 424, E(): 8.2e-21, (33.9% identity in 289 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the FPG family. Cofactor: binds 1 zinc ion.
Functional categoryInformation pathways
ProteomicsIdentified 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). Non essential gene for growth in vitro by Tn5370 transposon mutagenesis of H37Rv strain and no virulence modification seen in SCID mice (see McAdam et al., 2002).
