Analysis of the proteome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in silico
Open accessAbstract
Novel bioinformatics routines have been used to provide a more detailed definition of the proteome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Over half of the current proteins result from gene duplication or domain shuffling events while one-sixth show no similarity to polypeptides described in other organisms. Prominent among the genes that appear to have been duplicated on numerous occasions are those involved in fatty acid metabolism, regulation of gene expression, and the unusually glycine-rich PE and PPE proteins. Protein similarity analysis, coupled with inspection of the genetic neighbourhood, was used to explore possible functional relatedness. This uncovered four large mce operons whose proteins may mediate initial interactions between the tubercle bacillus and host cells, together with a cluster of genes that might encode components of a structure required for secretion of ESAT-6 like proteins. Close linkage of the mmpL genes, encoding large membrane proteins, with those required for fatty acid metabolism suggests involvement in lipid transport. Compared to free-living bacteria, M. tuberculosis has a significantly smaller transport protein repertoire and this may reflect its intracellular lifestyle.

In the citing paper
“Five ESX systems are encoded in the genome of M. tuberculosis (16,18), and this number is the highest found in mycobacteria so far; other mycobacterial species show fewer systems (e.g., Mycobacterium marinum shows four systems and Mycobacterium abscessus shows three systems) (21,22).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
