ncRv0897 MTB000121
ncRNA Putative small regulatory RNA
This is an RNA, not a coding gene: it belongs to a separate track and carries none of the protein evidence layers.
Location
1000719–1000826 (+ strand), 108 nt, on H37Rv
(NC_000962.3).
Overlaps: Rv0896, Rv0897c.
Upstream neighbour Rv0895
(1420 bp).
Downstream neighbour Rv0898c
(1615 bp).
Intra-MTBC variation
| Genomes surveyed | 145,209 |
| Variable sites | 83 |
| Variants reaching 0.1 % of genomes | 2 |
| Carriers of the most widespread variant | 16,328 |
Coverage control
Variant density inside this RNA: 76.9 sites/100 bp, versus 54.9 in the flanking ±500 bp (GC 62.0 %). The flanks act as an internal witness: if variants are called normally around the RNA but none becomes widespread inside it, the constraint is real rather than a sequencing gap.
Verdict: n/a (a des variants communs)
Predicted secondary structure
72.2 % of bases are paired in the minimum-free-energy fold (78 paired, 30 unpaired). Folded in isolation; the in vivo structure may differ (partners, co-transcriptional folding).
Literature no publication
No mention of 'ncRv0897' anywhere in the TB literature corpus.
Read with care. Absence of literature does not imply absence of function; simply that no primary study addresses this locus under this name.
Sweep: tbmonitor TB corpus (~330k PubMed abstracts), single grouped UNION-ALL sweep of 2026-08-17 over the 72 ncRNA never previously searched; positive controls MTS2823 (6 papers), mcr11 (3), mcr7 (2) all returned their known hits, so a zero here is a measured absence and not a broken query.
Legacy record
Supported by sRNA-Seq in H37Rv (see DeJesus et al. 2017)
