Rv3902c | Hypothetical protein; Antitoxin for tuberculosis necrotizing toxin (TNT). Acts by binding directly to TNT, which inhibits NAD(+) glycohydrolase activity of TNT and protects M.tuberculosis from self-poisoning. (176 aa) | ||||
cpnT | Hypothetical alanine and proline rich protein; Has a dual function in uptake of nutrients and induction of host cell death. The N-terminal domain (NTD) forms an outer membrane channel and is used for uptake of nutrients across the outer membrane. The secreted C-terminal toxic domain (TNT) acts as a glycohydrolase, which hydrolyzes the essential cellular coenzyme NAD(+) in the cytosol of infected macrophages, leading to necrotic host cell death. Both functions are required for survival, replication and cytotoxicity of M.tuberculosis in macrophages. (846 aa) | ||||

sigM | Possible alternative RNA polymerase sigma factor SigM; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors are held in an inactive form by an anti-sigma factor (RsaM, AC L7N5D7) until released by regulated intramembrane proteolysis (Probable). This sigma factor is required for the synthesis of surface or secreted molecules. (222 aa) | ||||
rsmA | Hypothetical alanine rich protein; An anti-sigma factor for extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor SigM. ECF sigma factors are held in an inactive form by an anti-sigma factor until released by regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP).
