ProductProbable tRNA/rRNA methylase SpoU (tRNA/rRNA methyltransferase)
CommentsRv3366, (MTV004.23), len: 154 aa. Probable spoU, tRNA/rRNA methylase, equivalent to Q9CCU7|ML0419 putative tRNA/rRNA methyltransferase from Mycobacterium leprae (158 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 861, E(): 1.2e-50, (83.75% identity in 154 aa overlap); and O07698|MLCL383.24c rRNA methylase from Mycobacterium leprae (169 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 861, E(): 1.3e-50, (83.75% identity in 154 aa overlap). Also highly similar to many members of the spoU family of rRNA methylases e.g. Q9K199|NMB0268 RNA methyltransferase (TRMH family) from Neisseria meningitidis (serogroup B) (154 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 534, E(): 7.6e-29, (50.0% identity in 154 aa overlap); and Q9JSM8|NMA2218 from Neisseria meningitidis (serogroup A) (154 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 526, E(): 2.6e-28, (49.35% identity in 154 aa overlap); Q9HU57|PA5127 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (153 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 531, E(): 1.2e-28, (52.95% identity in 151 aa overlap); P33899|YIBK_ECOLI|B3606 from Escherichia coli strain K12 (157 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 511, E(): 2.6e-27, (49.35% identity in 154 aa overlap); etc. Belongs to the RNA methyltransferase TrmH family.
Functional categoryInformation pathways
ProteomicsIdentified by mass spectrometry in M. tuberculosis H37Rv-infected guinea pig lungs at 30 days but not 90 days (See Kruh et al., 2010). 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).
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).
