CommentsRv3421c, (MTCY78.08), len: 211 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, equivalent to Q49857|YY21_MYCLE|ML0378|B229_C1_170 hypothetical 38.0 KDA protein from Mycobacterium leprae (359 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1000, E(): 1.8e-50, (75.6% identity in 205 aa overlap). Also similar to other hypothetical bacterial proteins e.g. O86791|SC6G4.28 from Streptomyces coelicolor (217 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 453, E(): 3.3e-19, (48.1% identity in 212 aa overlap); Q9AC10|CC0059 (glycoprotease family protein) from Caulobacter crescentus (211 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 248, E(): 2e-07, (34.3% identity in 210 aa overlap); Q9KQK9|VC1989 from Vibrio cholerae (237 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 238, E(): 8.2e-07, (28.85% identity in 208 aa overlap); BAB51966|Mlr5530 from Rhizobium loti (Mesorhizobium loti) (225 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 237, E(): 9e-07, (35.0% identity in 220 aa overlap); etc. Some similarity to upstream Q50709|GCP_MYCTU|Rv3419c|MT3528|MTCY78.10 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (344 aa), (33.9% identity in 127 aa overlap).
Functional categoryConserved hypotheticals
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). Required for survival in primary murine macrophages, by transposon site hybridization (TraSH) in H37Rv (See Rengarajan et al., 2005). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, but essential for in vitro growth on cholesterol; by sequencing of Himar1-based transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
