The presence of target DNA increases stability of phospho-DevR in vitro. Activates its own transcription under hypoxic but not aerobic conditions, probably binds as a dimer to tandem binding sites within the devR and hspX promoters. Accepts [...] (217 aa) | ||||

atpE | ATP synthase subunit c; F(1)F(0) ATP synthase produces ATP from ADP in the presence of a proton or sodium gradient. F-type ATPases consist of two structural domains, F(1) containing the extramembraneous catalytic core and F(0) containing the membrane proton channel, linked together by a central stalk and a peripheral stalk. During catalysis, ATP synthesis in the catalytic domain of F(1) is coupled via a rotary mechanism of the central stalk subunits to proton translocation. (81 aa) | ||||
inhA | NADH-dependent enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase InhA (NADH-dependent enoyl-ACP reductase); Enoyl-ACP reductase of the type II fatty acid syntase (FAS- II) system, which is involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acids, a major component of mycobacterial cell walls. Catalyzes the NADH-dependent reduction of the double bond of 2-trans- enoyl-[acyl-carrier protein], an essential step in the fatty acid elongation cycle of the FAS-II pathway. Shows preference for long-chain fatty acyl thioester substrates (>C16), and can also use 2-trans-enoyl-CoAs as alternative substrates. The mycob [...] (269 aa) | ||||
glnE | Glutamate-ammonia-ligase adenylyltransferase GlnE (glutamine-synthetase adenylyltransferase); Involved in the regulation of glutamine synthetase GlnA, a key enzyme in the process to assimilate ammonia. When cellular nitrogen levels are high, the C-terminal adenylyl transferase (AT) inactivates GlnA by covalent transfer of an adenylyl group from ATP to specific tyrosine residue of GlnA, thus reducing its activity. Conversely, when nitrogen levels are low, the N-terminal adenylyl removase (AR) activates GlnA by removing the adenylyl group by phosphorolysis, increasing its activity. The r [...] (994 aa) | ||||
cyp121 | Cytochrome P450 121 Cyp121; Catalyzes C-C bond formation between the carbons ortho to the phenolic hydroxyl of cyclo(L-tyr-L-tyr) (cYY) producing mycocyclosin. Can also use cyclo(L-Tyr-L-Phe) (cYF), cyclo(L-Tyr-L-Trp) (cYW) and cyclo(L-Tyr-L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) (cY-DOPA) as substrate. Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family. (396 aa) | ||||
relA | Guanosine-3',5'-bis(diphosphate) 3'-pyrophosphohydrolase; In eubacteria ppGpp (guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5-' diphosphate) is a mediator of the stringent response that coordinates a variety of cellular activities in response to changes in nutritional abundance. This enzyme catalyzes both the formation of pppGpp, which is then hydrolyzed to form ppGpp, as well as the hydrolysis of ppGpp. RelA is probably a key factor in the pathogenesis of M.tuberculosis as it regulates the intracellular concentrations of (p)ppGpp. (790 aa) | ||||
