    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • inactivation of ''[gene|06971E9AAB033E2878914A76645F99E97CE8A90A|fmt]'' suppresses the synthetic lethality of the ''[gene|3D41FB608DB70B9482312A1BBCCDBDA7FB713AFA|defA] [gene|53B760316B19E142FC3ECAD2CFAA540377B08BBC|defB]'' double mutant [Pubmed|27983482]
  • essential according to Kobayashi et al. [Pubmed|12682299], but a deletion mutant was constructed by Cai et al. [Pubmed|27983482]
  • the mutant is defective for [SW|biofilm formation], motility, and [SW|sporulation] [Pubmed|27983482]
  • the mutant exhibits increased sensitivity to metal ion excess and oxidative stress [Pubmed|27983482]
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • (6S)-10-formyltetrahydrofolate + L-methionyl-tRNAfMet --> (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + H+ + N-formyl-L-methionyl-tRNAfMet (according to UniProt)
  • Protein family

  • fmt family (single member, according to UniProt)
  • Structure

  • [PDB|3RFO] (from ''Bacillus anthracis'', 69% identity, 89% similarity)

    additional information

  • [protein|search|translation] is likely to require [protein|3054CD45713BBD69C2A528DE24AF6AF37175FD9D|Efp] due to the presence of several consecutive proline residues [PubMed|23239624,23239623]
