ProductPossible esterase lipoprotein LpqC
CommentsRv3298c, (MTCY71.38c), len: 304 aa. Possible lpqC, esterase lipoprotein, equivalent to Q9CCL5|LPQC|ML0715 putative secreted hydrolase from Mycobacterium leprae (304 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1543, E(): 1.3e-87, (71.6% identity in 303 aa overlap); and Q49658|B1308_F2_43 tubulin family protein from Mycobacterium leprae (302 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1541, E(): 1.7e-87, (72.0% identity in 300 aa overlap). Also similar to Q9I5Z3|PA0543 hypothetical protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (322 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 439, E(): 8.9e-20, (32.3% identity in 319 aa overlap); Q9F2K9|SCH63.19c putative secreted protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (348 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 394, E(): 5.5e-17, (30.25% identity in 334 aa overlap); etc. And similar to O86367|LPQP|Rv0671|MTCI376.03c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv (280 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 519, E(): 9.8e-25, (39.25% identity in 275 aa overlap). Probably lipoprotein, esterase membrane-bound, with 18 aa signal sequence as it contains appropriately positioned (PS00013) Prokaryotic membrane lipoprotein lipid attachment site.
Functional categoryCell wall and cell processes
ProteomicsIdentified in the membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using nanoLC-MS/MS (See Xiong et al., 2005). Identified 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).
