Gene Rv2964
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Involved in de novo purine biosynthesis [catalytic activity: 10-formyltetrahydrofolate + H(2)O = formate + tetrahydrofolate]. |
| Product | Probable formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase PurU (formyl-FH(4) hydrolase) |
| Comments | Rv2964, (MTCY349.23c), len: 310 aa. Probable purU, formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase, highly similar to others e.g. Q9RWT1|DR0584 formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase from Deinococcus radiodurans (298 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1005, E(): 4.9e-52, (52.25% identity in 297 aa overlap); Q9K7U4 formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase from Bacillus halodurans (289 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 982, E(): 1.1e-50, (51.8% identity in 280 aa overlap); Q55135|PURU_SYNY3|SLL0070 formyltetrahydrofolate deformylase from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 (284 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 839, E(): 2.9e-42, (48.2% identity in 280 aa overlap); etc. |
| Functional category | Intermediary metabolism and respiration |
| Proteomics | Identified 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). |
| Mutant | Non-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). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
