Crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Resuscitation promoting factor E
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24452911
Function
[RPFE_MYCTU] Factor that stimulates resuscitation of dormant cells. Has peptidoglycan (PG) hydrolytic activity. Active in the pM concentration range. Has little to no effect on actively-growing cells. PG fragments could either directly activate the resuscitation pathway of dormant bacteria or serve as a substrate for endogenous Rpf, resulting in low molecular weight products with resuscitation activity.[1] Stimulates growth of stationary phase M.bovis (a slow-growing Mycobacterium), reduces the lag phase of diluted fast-growers M.smegmatis and Micrococcus luteus. Sequential gene disruption indicates RpfB and RpfE are higher than RpfD and RpfC in functional hierarchy.[2]
