Rv2621c, (MTCY01A10.11), len: 224 aa. Possible transcriptional regulator, similar in part to Q49688|MLCL536.29c|ML0592 putative DNA-binding protein from Mycobacterium leprae (254 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 168, E(): 0.0018, (29.75% identity in 222 aa overlap). Shows similarity with Q9XAD0|SCC22.08c putative DNA-binding protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (252 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 148, E(): 0.032, (29.4% identity in 204 aa overlap); and Q9RVM8|DR0999 conserved hypothetical protein from Deinococcus radiodurans (225 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 195, E(): 3.3e-05, (29.6% identity in 213 aa ove [...]

Ferredoxin FdxA; Ferredoxins are iron-sulfur proteins that transfer electrons in a wide variety of metabolic reactions.

Rv2622, (MTCY01A10.10c), len: 273 aa. Possible methyltransferase, similar in part to others e.g. AAK75664|SP1578 putative methyltransferase from Streptococcus pneumoniae (252 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 406,E(): 6.6e-18, (32.65% identity in 251 aa overlap); Q9F8B8 methyltransferase from Streptococcus agalactiae (254 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 381, E(): 2.3e-16, (31.75% identity in 252 aa overlap); Q9RJB6|SCF91.08 putative methyltransferase from Streptomyces coelicolor (231 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 159, E(): 0.0091, (33.1% identity in 151 aa overlap); etc. Also similar in part to several hypothe [...]

Universal stress protein family protein TB31.7; May play a role in the establishment of a persistent infection (latency) in the host, as strains without this gene are hypervirulent. Overexpression of the protein retards growth in culture; Glu-15 and Ala-117 mutant proteins which bind less ATP do not show this retardation, suggesting growth may be regulated through an ATP- dependent function.

Probable nicotinate-nucleotide adenylyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible adenylation of nicotinate mononucleotide (NaMN) to nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (NaAD).

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.

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.

Phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a formyl group from 10- formyltetrahydrofolate to 5-phospho-ribosyl-glycinamide (GAR), producing 5-phospho-ribosyl-N-formylglycinamide (FGAR) and tetrahydrofolate; Belongs to the GART family.
