H37Rv Rv0144 · MTBC0 - · 280 aa · 170284–171126 (+) · RefSeq NP_214658.1

Annotation: from legacy to revised

Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser)transcriptional regulator
MTBC0 PGAP re-annotation
Revised (this work)Transcriptional regulator. Pfam: TetR_N (PF00440.30), TetR_C_13 (PF16925.11).

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).

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

pN/pS 1.236 · diversifying/relaxed
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 2 synonymous, 6 missense, 1 nonsense, 2 frameshift
Disruption 3 distinct premature-stop/frameshift site(s); most common in 6.38% of strains (9267) · 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.
