Gene Rv3110 (moaB)
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Thought to be involved in molybdopterin biosynthesis. Catalyzes the dehydratation of 4A-hydroxytetrahydropterins [catalytic activity: (6R)-6-(L-erythro-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4A-hydroxypterin = (6R)-6-(L-erythro-1,2- dihydroxypropyl)-7,8-dihydro-6H-pterin + H(2)O]. |
| Product | Probable pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase MoaB1 (PHS) (4-alpha- hydroxy-tetrahydropterin dehydratase) (pterin-4-a-carbinolamine dehydratase) (phenylalanine hydroxylase-stimulating protein) (PHS) (pterin carbinolamine dehydratase) (PCD) |
| Comments | Rv3110, (MTCY164.20), len: 131 aa. Probable moaB1, pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase, similar to others e.g. P73790|SSL2296 from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 (96 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 195, E(): 6.2e-07, (35.4% identity in 96 aa overlap); Q9PAB4|PHS_XYLFA|XF2604 from Xylella fastidiosa (116 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 187, E(): 2.6e-06, (36.25% identity in 102 aa overlap); AAK42360|Q97WM6|PHS_SULSO|SSO2187 from Sulfolobus solfataricus (114 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 177, E(): 1.3e-05, (34.6% identity in 78 aa overlap); etc. Also highly similar to AAK47768|MT3426 pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis CDC1551 (124 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 383, E(): 7.7e-20, (50.0% identity in 110 aa overlap). Belongs to the pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase family. Note that previously known as moaB. This region is a possible MT-complex-specific genomic island (See Becq et al., 2007). |
| Functional category | Intermediary metabolism and respiration |
