RNA polymerase sigma factor SigA (sigma-A); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth (Probable); Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. RpoD/SigA subfamily.

DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit beta; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.

Enhanced intracellular survival protein Eis,GCN5-related N-acetyltransferase; Effector that is released into the host cell and affects host immune responses; it negatively modulates inflammation, macrophage autophagy, and cell death through redox-dependent signaling. Acts as an acetyltransferase. Acetylates 'Lys-55' of dual-specificity protein phosphatase 16 (DUSP16)/mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-7 (MKP-7), a JNK- specific phosphatase; this leads to the inhibition of JNK-dependent autophagy, phagosome maturation, and ROS (reactive oxygen species) generation for enhanced [...]

DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit alpha; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.

Conserved protein; Binds to RNA polymerase (RNAP), stimulating and stabilizing the formation of stable RNAP promoter complexes up to 2-fold from principal sigma factor SigA-dependent but not alternative sigma factor SigF-dependent promoters. Increases the affinity of core RNAP for SigA, increasing the transcriptional activity of RNAP. Unlike the case in M.smegmatis or S.coelicolor, has no effect on rifampicin inhibition of transcription. Has no effect on E.coli RNAP. Belongs to the RNA polymerase-binding protein RbpA family.

2'-O-methyltransferase TlyA; Acts as a host evasion factor, that significantly contributes to the pathogenesis of M.tuberculosis by modulating adaptive immune responses by inhibiting host-protective Th1 and Th17 cytokine responses as well as autophagy. Catalyzes the 2'-O-methylation at nucleotides C1409 in 16S rRNA and C1920 in 23S rRNA. Is likely involved in ribosomal biogenesis. Also exhibits hemolytic activity in vitro, by binding with and oligomerizing into host cell membranes. Belongs to the TlyA family.

DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit omega; Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits.

Possible transcription factor; Controls rRNA transcription by binding to the RNA polymerase (RNAP). Required for replication and persistence during infection of mice; Belongs to the CarD family.

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.
