General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function a MftC deletion mutant is unable to grow in minimal medium containing cholesterol (0.01% [wt/vol]) as the sole carbon source with hot ethanol (1% [vol/vol]) as the solvent (cholesterol and EtOH [cholesterol:EtOH]). There is no significant growth retardation in cholesterol:DMSO. Supplementation of ethanol has no effect on mutant strain growth in propionate (0.5% [wt/vol]) or glycerol (0.2% [vol/vol]) but severely delays mutant strain growth in acetate (0.5% [wt/vol]) in comparison with the growth of the wild-type strain. MftC deletion results in multifold increases in expression of the DosR regulon genes in ethanol-treated strains Mycolicibacterium smegmatis
