UniProt nameAcyl-CoA dehydrogenase FadE26
EC (curated) EC 1.3.99.-
Curated functionInvolved in the first cycle of side chain dehydrogenation in the beta-oxidation of cholesterol catabolism. It contributes partly to the virulence by increasing the efficiency of beta-oxidation. Catalyzes the dehydrogenation of acyl-CoA ester side chains of (25S)-3-oxo-cholest-4-en-26-oyl-CoA (3-OCS-CoA) to yield (24E)-3-oxo-cholest-4,24-dien-26-oyl-CoA. Also able to dehydrogenate steroyl-CoA such as 3-oxo-chol-4-en-24-oyl-CoA (3-OCO-CoA) as well as 3-oxo-4-pregnene-20-carboxyl-CoA (3-OPC-CoA). It dehydrogenates only (25S)-OCS-CoA diastereomer (Probable).

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 0.227 · purifying
Polymorphic sites (≥ 0.1% of strains) 3 synonymous, 2 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.
