Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155 fbiC and MSMEG_2392 are involved in triphenylmethane dye decolorization and coenzyme F420 biosynthesis.
Mycobacteria can tolerate relatively high concentrations of triphenylmethane dyes such as malachite green and methyl violet. To identify mycobacterial genes involved in the decolorization of malachite green, a transposon mutant library of Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155 was screened for mutants unable to decolorize this dye. One of the genes identified was MSMEG_5126, an orthologue of Mycobacte...
متن کاملPurification of a novel coenzyme F420-dependent glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Mycobacterium smegmatis.
A variety of Mycobacterium species contained the 5-deazaflavin coenzyme known as F420. Mycobacterium smegmatis was found to have a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase that was dependent on F420 as an electron acceptor and which did not utilize NAD or NADP. The enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, phenyl-Sepharose column chromatography, F420-ether-linked aminohexyl-Sepharose 4B a...
متن کاملDemonstration that fbiC is required by Mycobacterium bovis BCG for coenzyme F(420) and FO biosynthesis.
Using the nitroimidazopyran-based antituberculosis drug PA-824 as a selective agent, transposon-generated Mycobacterium bovis strain BCG (M. bovis) mutants that could not make coenzyme F(420) were identified. Four independent mutants that could not make F(420) or the biosynthesis intermediate FO were examined more closely. These mutants contained transposons inserted in the M. bovis homologue o...
متن کاملMetabolic Engineering of Cofactor F420 Production in Mycobacterium smegmatis
Cofactor F(420) is a unique electron carrier in a number of microorganisms including Archaea and Mycobacteria. It has been shown that F(420) has a direct and important role in archaeal energy metabolism whereas the role of F(420) in mycobacterial metabolism has only begun to be uncovered in the last few years. It has been suggested that cofactor F(420) has a role in the pathogenesis of M. tuber...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequences of a Mycobacterium smegmatis Laboratory Strain (MC2 155) and Isoniazid-Resistant (4XR1/R2) Mutant Strains
We report the whole genome sequences of a Mycobacterium smegmatis laboratory wild-type strain (MC(2) 155) and mutants (4XR1, 4XR2) resistant to isoniazid. Compared to Mycobacterium smegmatis MC(2) 155 (NC_008596), a widely used strain in laboratory experiments, the MC(2) 155, 4XR1, and 4XR2 strains are 60, 128 and 93 bp longer, respectively.
