Annotation: from legacy to revised

Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser)GTPase Era
MTBC0 PGAP re-annotation
Revised (this work)GTPase Era. Pfam: MMR_HSR1 (PF01926.30), FeoB_N (PF02421.25), PduV-EutP (PF10662.16), GTP_EFTU (PF00009.34), KH_2 (PF07650.24).

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).

Curated reference (UniProt)

UniProt P9WNK9 SwissProt · reviewed · Evidence at protein level
UniProt nameGTPase Era
Curated functionExhibits GTPase activity. Binds RNA but is probably not involved in ribosome assembly in mycobacteria (By similarity).

Functional vocabulary (eggNOG-mapper, orthology transfer)

COG category S Function unknown
Preferred nameera
eggNOG descriptionAn essential GTPase that binds both GDP and GTP, with rapid nucleotide exchange. Plays a role in 16S rRNA processing and 30S ribosomal subunit biogenesis and possibly also in cell cycle regulation and energy metabolism

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 0.0 · strong purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 6 synonymous, 0 missense, 0 nonsense, 0 frameshift

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.
