cysD | Rv1285, (MTCY373.04), len: 332 aa. Probable cysD,sulfate adenylyltransferase subunit 2 (see Wooff et al.,2002), homology suggests start site at aa 24 or 28, similar to e.g. CYSD_ECOLI|P21156 sulfate adenylate transferase subunit 2 from Escherichia coli (302 aa), FASTA score: opt: 973, E():0, (52.5% identity in 303 aa overlap). Also similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv2392,3'-phosphoadenylylsulfate reductase. Belongs to the PAPS reductase family. CYSD subfamily. Thought to be differentially expressed within host cells (see Triccas et al., 1999). (332 aa) | ||||
esxA | 6 kDa early secretory antigenic target EsxA (ESAT-6); A secreted protein that plays a number of roles in modulating the host's immune response to infection as well as being responsible for bacterial escape into the host cytoplasm. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Inhibits IL- 12 p40 (IL12B) and TNF-alpha expression by infected host (mouse) macrophages, reduces the nitric oxide response by about 75%. In mice previously exposed to the bacterium, elicits high level of IFN-gamma production by T-cells upon subsequent challenge by M.tuberculosis, in the first phase of a protecti [...] (95 aa) | ||||
fbpB | Diacylglycerol acyltransferase/mycolyltransferase Ag85B; The antigen 85 proteins (FbpA, FbpB, FbpC) are responsible for the high affinity of mycobacteria for fibronectin, a large adhesive glycoprotein, which facilitates the attachment of M.tuberculosis to murine alveolar macrophages (AMs). They also help to maintain the integrity of the cell wall by catalyzing the transfer of mycolic acids to cell wall arabinogalactan and through the synthesis of alpha,alpha- trehalose dimycolate (TDM, cord factor). They catalyze the transfer of a mycoloyl residue from one molecule of alpha,alpha-treha [...] (325 aa) |
