H37Rv Rv0042c · MTBC0 - · 208 aa · 46581–47207 (-) · RefSeq NP_214556.1

Annotation: from legacy to revised

Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser)transcriptional regulator
MTBC0 PGAP re-annotation
Revised (this work)Transcriptional regulator. Pfam: MarR_2 (PF12802.14), Staph_reg_Sar_Rot (PF22381.3), MarR (PF01047.29), HTH_27 (PF13463.13).

Auto-curated: this verdict and function were generated by rules from PGAP + Pfam + Foldseek and have not been hand-reviewed.

Annotated on the H37Rv protein: this gene has no 1:1 ancestral MTBC0 anchor (PE/PPE, paralogue, IS element, or otherwise unanchored CDS).

Functional vocabulary (eggNOG-mapper, orthology transfer)

COG category K Transcription
Preferred nameuspR
eggNOG descriptiontranscriptional
Orthologous groupCOG1846

Orthology-based transfer (eggNOG 5.0.2, diamond). EC/KO/GO/CAZy are computed annotations, not manual curation; cross-check against the primary literature before treating a specific reaction as established.

Conservation & selection (intra-MTBC, 145 209 strains)

pN/pS 0.38 · purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 4 synonymous, 4 missense, 0 nonsense, 1 frameshift
Disruption 1 distinct premature-stop/frameshift site(s); most common in 0.67% of strains (976) · clonal

pN/pS from segregating SNPs (singletons removed) normalised by possible sites. Low pN/pS = purifying selection (a strong signal that a "hypothetical" is a real, constrained gene). A high pN/pS is ambiguous: relaxed constraint or positive selection (drug resistance, antigenic variation) inflate it; e.g. rpoB/katG/pncA score high here for resistance, not loss of function. A clonal disruption (one allele over a clade) suggests lineage pseudogenisation; a convergent one (many independent alleles) is typical of resistance loss-of-function.

STRING combines evidence channels (neighborhood, fusion, cooccurrence, coexpression, experimental, database, text-mining) into a 0–1000 score. The ctx badge marks edges carried by the genomic-context channels (conserved neighborhood, fusion, phylogenetic co-occurrence), which are independent of orthology and structure and the strongest signal for an unknown gene. The no text-mining column recomputes the score from data alone, so a link that does not depend on the literature is visible. Association is a function hypothesis, not proof: corroborate with the operon context and the primary literature before assigning a function.
