Annotation: from legacy to revised
| Legacy (H37Rv / Mycobrowser) | diacyglycerol O-acyltransferase |
|---|---|
| MTBC0 PGAP re-annotation | wax ester/triacylglycerol synthase family O-acyltransferase |
| Revised (this work) | Wax ester/triacylglycerol synthase family O-acyltransferase. Pfam: WS_DGAT_cat (PF03007.22), WS_DGAT_C (PF06974.19). |
Auto-curated: this verdict and function were generated by rules from PGAP + Pfam + Foldseek and have not been hand-reviewed.

EC 2.3.1.20
|
| Curated function | Required for maintaining the appropriate mycolic acid composition and permeability of the envelope on its exposure to acidic pH. Upon expression in E.coli functions weakly as a triacylglycerol synthase, making triacylglycerol (TG) from diolein and long-chain fatty acyl-CoA. Has no wax synthase activity. |
UniProt still lists this protein as Putative diacyglycerol O-acyltransferase Rv3087; the revised annotation above is ahead of the current UniProt record.

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 | 1.154 · relaxed/neutral |
|---|---|
| Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) | 3 synonymous, 10 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.
