1.S.10.  The Bacterial/Archaeal Nanocompartment Encapsulin Shell Protein6 (BANC-SP5) Family

Encapsulin nanocompartment protein Rv1762c  The system contributes to defense against oxidative stress in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Lien et al. 2021).  This nanocompartment contains the dye-decolorizing peroxidase DyP. It is important for the ability of Mtb to resist oxidative stress in low pH environments, including during infection of host cells and upon treatment with a clinically relevant antibiotic.

1.S.10.1.1

Nanocompartment encapsulin of 262 aas and 2 quite hydrophobic peaks at residues 40 and 155. The nanocompartment contains the dye-decolorizing peroxidase DyP. This nanocompartment is important for the ability of Mtb to resist oxidative stress in low pH environments, including during infection of host cells and upon treatment with a clinically relevant antibiotic (Lien et al. 2021). Shell component of a type 2A encapsulin nanocompartment. It forms nanocompartments about 24 nm in diameter from 60 monomers, and probably encapsulates at least cysteine desulfurase (CyD, Acc # O32975) and allows passage of cysteine into its interior, probably involved in sulfur metabolism.
