Rv2104a Still unknown · low auto-curated

H37Rv Rv2104a · MTBC0 - · 85 aa · 2364797–2365054 (-) · RefSeq YP_009030035.1

Annotation: from legacy to revised

Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser)hypothetical protein
MTBC0 PGAP re-annotation
Revised (this work)Conserved hypothetical protein; no recognised domain. Function unknown.

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).

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 0.261 · purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 3 synonymous, 1 missense, 1 nonsense, 1 frameshift
Disruption 2 distinct premature-stop/frameshift site(s); most common in 0.21% of strains (301) · 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.

Domains (Pfam, hmmscan --cut_ga)

No Pfam-A domain above the gathering threshold (or not yet scanned).

Evidence

  • Annotation from H37Rv (no MTBC0 1:1 anchor; H37Rv protein used): hypothetical protein
  • (auto-curated by rules from PGAP + Pfam + Foldseek; not hand-reviewed)

  • Model confidence: ESMFold per-residue pLDDT (mean 54.1, low)
  • Primary literature: none located yet; annotation rests on the domain/homology sources above.
