Gene Rv3740c
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
General annotation
| Type | CDS |
| Function | May be involved in synthesis of triacylglycerol |
| Product | Possible triacylglycerol synthase (diacylglycerol acyltransferase) |
| Comments | Rv3740c, (MTV025.088c), len: 448 aa. Possible triacylglycerol synthase (See Daniel et al., 2004), highly similar to several other Mycobacterium tuberculosis hypothetical proteins e.g. O69701|Y1D4_MYCTU|Rv3734c|MT3839|MTV025.082c (454 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 1917, E(): 2.3e-112, (61.4% identity in 451 aa overlap); Q50680|YM85_MYCTU|Rv2285|MT2343|MTCY339.25c (445 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 858, E(): 3.4e-46, (37.4% identity in 460 aa overlap); Q10554|Y895_MYCTU|Rv0895|MT0919|MTCY31.23 (505 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 767, E(): 1.9e-40, (44.3% identity in 467 aa overlap); MTCY31_25; MTCY28_26; MTCY493_29; MTCY21B4_43; MTCY8D5_16; MTCY3A2_28; MTV013_8; MTY13E12_33; MTV013_9; MTY20B11_9; etc. Also similar to Q9RIU8|SCM11.13c hypothetical 47.1 KDA protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (446 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 319, E(): 1.7e-12, (30.9% identity in 453 aa overlap). |
| Functional category | Lipid metabolism |
| 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 and CDC1551 strains (see Sassetti et al., 2003 and Lamichhane et al., 2003). Non-essential gene for in vitro growth of H37Rv, by Himar1 transposon mutagenesis (See Griffin et al., 2011). Check for mutants available at TARGET website |
