in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | Unknown |
| Product | Conserved hypothetical protein |
| Comments | Rv3404c, (MTCY78.24), len: 234 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, some similarity to several methionyl-tRNA formyltransferases e.g. BAB51418|MLL4854 from Rhizobium loti (Mesorhizobium loti) (317 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 210, E(): 1.7e-06, (27.55% identity in 178 aa overlap); P94463|FMT_BACSU from Bacillus subtilis (317 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 199 ,E(): 8.8e-06, (28.25% identity in 177 aa overlap); O51091||FMT_BORBU|BB0064 from Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease spirochete) (312 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 187, E(): 5.2e-05, (30.2% identity in 192 aa overlap); etc. |
| Functional category | Conserved hypotheticals |
| 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). Disruption of this gene provides a growth advantage 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). Non essential gene for growth in vitro by Tn5370 transposon mutagenesis of H37Rv strain but mutant is less virulent in SCID mice (see McAdam et al., 2002).
