Alternative RNA polymerase sigma-E factor (sigma-24) SigH (RPOE); 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 a cognate anti-sigma factor (RshA) until released. This sigma factor is involved in heat shock and oxidative stress responses; it positively regulates the expression of itself, sigE, sigB and a number of transcriptional regulators as well as other effectors of heat and oxidative stress, leading to direct and ind [...]

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.

Rv0093c, (MTCY251.12c), len: 282 aa. Probable conserved membrane protein, equivalent only to CAC30943.1|AL583924 probable integral membrane protein from Mycobacterium leprae (237 aa). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al.,2004).

Alternative RNA polymerase sigma factor SigF; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Held in an inactive form by a cognate anti-sigma factor RsbW (UsfX) until released. Increased expression decreases growth rate, and after 3 days increases the expression of 51 loci encoding 33 protein- coding genes as well as some non-coding RNA.

Probable alternative RNA polymerase sigma-D factor SigD; 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 until released by regulated intramembrane proteolysis.

Alternative RNA polymerase sigma factor SigK; 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 until released by regulated intramembrane proteolysis. Sigma-K controls genes such as mpt70 and mpt83.

RNA polymerase sigma factor SigB; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. A non-essential principal sigma factor that responds to cell envelope stress and hypoxia. Controls a regulon of about 40 genes, with another 100 genes expression being altered during SDS stress and about 50 gene being altered during diamide (oxidative) stress.

Class a beta-lactamase BlaC; Extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) that inactivates beta-lactam antibiotics by hydrolyzing the amide group of the beta- lactam ring. Displays high levels of penicillinase and cephalosporinase activity as well as measurable activity with carbapenems, including imipenem and meropenem. Plays a primary role in the intrinsic resistance of M.tuberculosis to beta-lactam antibiotics.

Possible alternative RNA polymerase sigma factor SigI; 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 a cognate anti-sigma factor until released, although no anti-sigma factor is known for this protein (By similarity).
