FunctionInvolved in osmoregulatory trehalose biosynthesis. Mycobacteria can produce trehalose from glucose 6-phosphate and UDP-glucose (the OtsA-OtsB pathway) from glycogen-like alpha(1-->4)-linked glucose polymers (the TreY-TreZ pathway) and from maltose (the TreS pathway) [catalytic activity: UDP-glucose + D-glucose 6-phosphate = UDP + alpha,alpha-trehalose 6-phosphate].
ProductAlpha, alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase [UDP-forming] OtsA (trehalose-6-phosphate synthase) (UDP-glucose-glucosephosphate glucosyltransferase) (trehalosephosphate-UDP glucosyltransferase) (trehalose-6-phosphate synthetase) (trehalose-phosphate synthase) (trehalose-phosphate synthetase) (transglucosylase) (trehalosephosphate-UDP glucosyl transferase)
CommentsRv3490, (MTCY13E12.43), len: 500 aa. otsA, alpha, alpha-trehalose-phosphate synthase (see citations below), equivalent to Q50167|OTSA|ML2254 probable trehalose-phosphate synthase from Mycobacterium leprae (498 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 2706, E(): 1.6e-166, (80.3% identity in 497 aa overlap). Also similar to others e.g. Q92410|TPS1_CANAL from Candida albicans (Yeast) (478 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 895, E(): 4.9e-50, (37.15% identity in 479 aa overlap); Q00764|TPS1_YEASTTPS1|CIF1|BYP1|FDP1|GGS1|GLC6|YBR126c|YBR0922 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) (495 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 847, E(): 6.2e-47, (36.1% identity in 490 aa overlap); BAB48232|MLL0691 from Rhizobium loti (Mesorhizobium loti) (520 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 884, E(): 2.7e-49, (36.2% identity in 478 aa overlap); etc. Equivalent to AAK47953 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (478 aa) but longer 22 aa.
Functional categoryVirulence, detoxification, adaptation
ProteomicsIdentified in the membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 1D-SDS-PAGE and uLC-MS/MS (See Gu et al., 2003). Identified in the cell wall fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega 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).
MutantEssential 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 results in growth defect of H37Rv in vitro, by analysis of saturated Himar1 transposon libraries (see DeJesus et al. 2017). Essential gene by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis in H37Rv strain (see Sassetti et al., 2003). Essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011).
