Probable GcpE protein; Converts 2C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate (ME- 2,4cPP) into 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl 4-diphosphate. Belongs to the IspG family.

Membrane bound metalloprotease; A probable intramembrane site-2 protease (S2P) that cleaves type-2 transmembrane proteins within their membrane-spanning domains. Cleaves PbpB (PBP3, FtsI) near 'Ala-102' and 'Ala-103' in response to oxidative stress; cleavage is inhibited by Wag31-PbpB interaction. Probably also cleaves anti-sigma factors RskA, RslA and RsmA but not RsdA; Belongs to the peptidase M50B family.

1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase; Catalyzes the NADP-dependent rearrangement and reduction of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate (DXP) to 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4- phosphate (MEP); Belongs to the DXR family.

Mycobacterial proteasome ATPase Mpa; ATPase which is responsible for recognizing, binding, unfolding and translocation of pupylated proteins into the bacterial 20S proteasome core particle. May be essential for opening the gate of the 20S proteasome via an interaction with its C-terminus, thereby allowing substrate entry and access to the site of proteolysis. Thus, the C-termini of the proteasomal ATPase may function like a 'key in a lock' to induce gate opening and therefore regulate proteolysis. Is required but not sufficient to confer resistance against the lethal effects of reactiv [...]

Rv1488, (MTCY277.09), len: 381 aa. Possible exported conserved protein; contains possible N-terminal signal sequence. Similar to YBBK_ECOLI|P77367 hypothetical protein ybbK from Escherichia coli (305 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 716, E(): 0, (37.1% identity in 307 aa overlap). Similar to stomatin-like proteins e.g. AF065260|AF065260_1 Clostridium difficile (320 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 767, E(): 0, (42.3% identity in 307 aa overlap). Predicted to be an outer membrane protein (See Song et al., 2008).

Rv2239c, (MTCY427.20c), len: 158 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, similar to conserved hypothetical proteins from Mycobacterium leprae (ML1649, 140 aa) and Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) (SCC8A.28c, 159 aa). Equivalent to ML1649 conserved hypothetical protein (140 aa). FASTA scores: ML1649 conserved hypothetical protein (140 aa) opt: 846, E(): 6.5e-45; 86.429% identity in 140 aa overlap (tr|O69479|O69479 hypothetical 15.2 KDA protein (140 aa); and opt: 447, E(): 1.2e-21; 50.355% identity (51.825% ungapped) in 141 aa overlap. Similarity with ML1649 suggests alternative start at 251198.

Rv3626c, (MTCY15C10.26), len: 350 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, similar to Q9X8I7|SCE9.14c hypothetical protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (375 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 720, E(): 2.2e-38, (41.55% identity in 361 aa overlap); and shows some similarity to Q9HPS0|VNG1497C hypothetical protein (317 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 226, E(): 4.5e-07, (29.7% identity in 347 aa overlap). Contains neutral zinc metallopeptidases, zinc-binding region signature (PS00142).

Toxin RelG; Toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Has RNase activity and preferentially cleaves at the 3'-end of purine ribonucleotides (By similarity). Overexpression in M.tuberculosis or M.smegmatis inhibits colony formation in a bacteriostatic rather than bacteriocidal fashion. Its toxic effect is neutralized by coexpression with cognate antitoxin RelB2 (shown only for M.smegmatis). Overexpression also increases the number of gentamicin-tolerant and levofloxacin-tolerant persister cells.

Rv3015c, (MTV012.29c), len: 337 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein, equivalent to Q9CBR6|ML1706 hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium leprae (337 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 1703, E(): 3.1e-92, (78.05% identity in 337 aa overlap); and (but longer 47 aa) O33101|MLCB637.09 hypothetical 30.0 KDA protein from Mycobacterium leprae (290 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1564, E(): 2.4e-78, (78.6% identity in 290 aa overlap). Also similar to Q9Z586|SC8D9.05 hypothetical 35.0 KDA protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (331 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 774,E(): 4.7e-38, (43.4% identity in 334 aa overlap); and show [...]
