Gene Rv3087
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | May be involved in synthesis of triacylglycerol |
| Product | Possible triacylglycerol synthase (diacylglycerol acyltransferase) |
| Comments | Rv3087, (MTV013.08), len: 472 aa. Possible triacylglycerol synthase (See Daniel et al., 2004), similar to several Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins e.g. MTCY08D5.16, MTCY28.26, MTCY493.29c. Also similar to Q9X7A8|MLCB1610.05|ML1244 conserved membrane protein from Mycobacterium leprae (491 aa). |
| Functional category | Lipid metabolism |
| 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). |
| Transcriptomics | mRNA identified by microarray analysis and real-time RT-PCR; transcription up-regulated at low pH in vitro conditions, which may mimic an environmental signal encountered by phagocytosed bacteria (see citation below). |
| Operon | Rv3085, Rv3086, and Rv3087 are co-transcribed; Rv3087 and Rv3088 are co-transcribed; by RT-PCR (See Singh et al., 2005). |
| 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). Required for growth in C57BL/6J mouse spleen, by transposon site hybridization (TraSH) in H37Rv (See Sassetti and Rubin, 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 |
