Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase; Catalyzes a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of AMP, that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis.

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).

Probable protein-export membrane protein (translocase subunit) SecG; Involved in protein export. Participates in an early event of protein translocation (By similarity); Belongs to the SecG family.

Conserved protein; Rv2901c, (MTCY274.32c), len: 101 aa. Conserved protein, very equivalent to O33023|ML1610|MLCB250.41 hypothetical 12.3 KDA protein from Mycobacterium leprae (101 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 658, E(): 2.6e-43, (99.0% identity in 101 aa overlap). Also highly similar to O69889|SC2E1.18 hypothetical protein from Streptomyces coelicolor and Streptomyces lividans (102 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 515, E(): 2.2e-32, (75.0% identity in 100 aa overlap). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004).

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.

tRNA dimethylallyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a dimethylallyl group onto the adenine at position 37 in tRNAs that read codons beginning with uridine, leading to the formation of N6-(dimethylallyl)adenosine (i(6)A).

Conserved protein; Transcriptional regulator that binds to its own promoter and thus may play a role in the regulation of the cotranscribed genes Rv1827 and Rv1828. Can also bind several promoter regions of genes that are essential, including ftsZ. Binds to the imperfect everted repeat sequence CTCAA through its winged-HTH motif.

Probable transcriptional regulatory protein WhiB-like WhiB7; The apo- but not holo-form probably binds DNA (By similarity). Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Probably redox- responsive. Upon overproduction at least 10 other genes are up- regulated, among them are Rv1258c, Rv1988, Rv2301, Rv2416c, Rv2725c and whiB7 itself. Probably redox-responsive. The apo-form has been shown to act as a protein disulfide reductase.

Transcriptional regulatory protein WhiB-like WhiB3. Contains [4FE-4S] cluster; A redox-sensitive transcriptional regulator. Maintains intracellular redox homeostasis by regulating catabolic metabolism and polyketide biosynthesis. Regulates expression of the redox buffer ergothioneine (ERG) in a carbon-source- dependent manner; loss of ERG or mycothiol (MSH, the other major redox buffer in this bacteria) leads to respiratory alterations and bioenergetic deficiencies that negatively impact virulence. In response to low external pH (like that found in host macrophage phagosomes) alters en [...]
