Gene
mazG
Protein

Organism
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strain ATCC 25618 / H37Rv)
Length
325 amino acids
Function
Required to maintain the full capacity of the mycobacterium to respond to oxidative stress via the degradation of oxidation-induced damaged nucleotides. Hydrolyzes all canonical (d)NTPs, as well as mutagenic dUTP and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP). Also involved in the transcriptional activation of RelA in response to oxidative stress.
Similarity
Belongs to the nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase family.

Gene
mazG
Protein
Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase
Organism
Escherichia coli O157:H7
Length
263 amino acids
Function
Involved in the regulation of bacterial cell survival under conditions of nutritional stress. Regulates the MazE-MazF toxin-antitoxin (TA) system that mediates programmed cell death (PCD). This is achieved by lowering the cellular concentration of (p)ppGpp produced by RelA under amino acid starvation, thus protecting the cell from the toxicity of MazF. Reduction of (p)ppGpp can be achieved by direct degradation of (p)ppGpp or by degradation of NTPs, which are substrates for (p)ppGpp synthesis by RelA (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase family.

Protein
Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Length
263 amino acids
Function
Involved in the regulation of bacterial cell survival under conditions of nutritional stress. Regulates the type II MazE-MazF toxin-antitoxin (TA) system which mediates programmed cell death (PCD). This is achieved by lowering the cellular concentration of (p)ppGpp produced by RelA under amino acid starvation, thus protecting the cell from the toxicity of MazF. Reduction of (p)ppGpp can be achieved by direct degradation of (p)ppGpp or by degradation of NTPs, which are substrates for (p)ppGpp synthesis by RelA.

Nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase/pyrophosphatase MazG
Organism
Thermotoga maritima (strain ATCC 43589 / MSB8 / DSM 3109 / JCM 10099)
Length
255 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of all eight canonical ribonucleoside triphosphates (NTP) and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTP) to their corresponding nucleoside monophosphates ((d)NMP) and PPi and subsequently hydrolyzes the resultant PPi to Pi. The NTPase activity with deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates as substrate is higher than corresponding ribonucleoside triphosphates. dGTP is the best substrate among the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, and GTP is the best among the ribonucleoside triphosphates.
Similarity
Belongs to the nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase family.
