Equivalent to AAK47536|MT3196 cytidine and deoxycytidylate deaminase family protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (187 aa) but shorter 11 aa. This [...]

30S ribosomal protein S20 RpsT; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS20 family.

DNA polymerase III (beta chain) DnaN (DNA nucleotidyltransferase); Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP- independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta ch [...]

Transcriptional regulatory protein WhiB-like WhiB1. Contains [4FE-4S]2+ cluster; Acts as a transcriptional repressor, inhibiting expression in vitro. Probably redox-responsive. The apo- but not holo-form binds to its own promoter as well as that of groEL2. Oxidized apo-form and nitrosylated holo-form also bind DNA. The apo-form has been shown to act as a protein disulfide reductase , but also not to act as a protein disulfide reductase.

Rv1312, (MTCY373.32), len: 147 aa. Conserved hypothetical secreted protein with potential N-terminal signal sequence. Highly similar to P53432|Y02W_MYCLE hypothetical Mycobacterium leprae protein (147 aa), FASTA score: opt: 884, E(): 0, (88.4% identity in 147 aa overlap). N-terminus hydrophobic.

Rv1830, (MTCY1A11.13c), len: 225 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, equivalent to Mycobacterium leprae hypothetical protein MLCB1788.33c|AL008609|O32916 (231 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 1307, E(): 0, (89.6% identity in 231 aa overlap).

Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase; Involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) and O4-methylthymine (O4-MeT) in DNA. Repairs the methylated nucleobase in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the methyl group to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction: the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated.

Possible adenylate cyclase (ATP pyrophosphate-lyase) (adenylyl cyclase); Rv1318c, (MTCY130.03c), len: 541 aa. Possible adenylate cyclase.
