TypeCDS
FunctionThioredoxin participates in various redox reactions through the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol, to a disulfide, & catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions. Forms together with thioredoxin reductase and NADPH a redox active system which donates electrons to a wide variety of different metabolic process. Seems regulated by sigh (Rv3223c product).
ProductThioredoxin TrxC (TRX) (MPT46)
CommentsRv3914, (MT4033, MTV028.05), len: 116 aa. TrxC (alternate gene names: mpt46, trx, trxA *), thioredoxin (see citations below), equivalent to O30974|THIO_MYCSM|TRXA thioredoxin from Mycobacterium smegmatis (112 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 576, E(): 2.1e-32, (80.2% identity in 111 aa overlap); and also equivalent to C-terminal end of P46843|TRXB_MYCLE|TRXB/a|TRX|ML2703 bifunctional thioredoxin reductase/thioredoxin from Mycobacterium leprae (458 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 628, E(): E(): 2e-35, (82.9% identity in 117 aa overlap). Also highly similar to many e.g. P80579|THIO_ALIAC from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius (Bacillus acidocaldarius) (105 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 411, E(): 3e-21, (57.15% identity in 105 aa overlap); P00275|THI1_CORNE from Corynebacterium nephridii (105 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 394, E(): 4.3e-20, (56.7% identity in 97 aa overlap); P00274|THIO_ECOLI|TRXA|TSNC|FIPA|B3781 from Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium strain K12 and LT2 respectively (108 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 364, E(): 4.7e-18, (54.45% identity in 101 aa overlap); etc. Also similar to O53162|TRXB|Rv1471|MTV007.18 thioredoxin from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (123 aa), FASTA scores: E(): 2.3e-15, (41.9% identity in 93 aa overlap). Contains PS00194 Thioredoxin family active site. Belongs to the thioredoxin family. The product of this CDS is supposedly secreted. In this case, this protein could exert its free radical scavenging activity inside macrophages. (*) Warning: note that Rv1470|MTV007.17 correspond also to trxA.
Functional categoryIntermediary metabolism and respiration
ProteomicsThe product of this CDS corresponds to spots 3914 identified in short term culture filtrate and cell wall by proteomics at the Statens Serum Institute (Denmark), and at the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology, Berlin, Germany (see proteomics citations). Identified in the membrane fraction of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 1D-SDS-PAGE and uLC-MS/MS (See Gu et al., 2003). Identified in the culture supernatant of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using mass spectrometry (See Mattow et al., 2003). Identified in the cytosol of M. tuberculosis H37Rv using 2DLC/MS (See Mawuenyega et al., 2005). Identified in culture filtrates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2007). Identified by mass spectrometry in Triton X-114 extracts of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See Malen et al., 2010). Identified by mass spectrometry in the culture filtrate, membrane protein fraction, and whole cell lysates of M. tuberculosis H37Rv (See de Souza et al., 2011). Translational start site supported by proteomics data (See de Souza et al., 2011).
TranscriptomicsmRNA identified by DNA microarray analysis and up-regulated at high temperatures (see Stewart et al., 2002). mRNA detected by RT-PCR in M. tuberculosis H37Rv under several in vitro growth conditions (oxidative stress and control) (See Akif et al., 2008).
MutantEssential 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).
