UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) is an essential enzyme involved in the bacterial cell wall synthesis, and is not present in mammalian cells. Thus, UGM from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) represents a novel and attractive drug target for developing

ABSTRACT Since their discovery as important determinants of virulence and growth, the type VII ESX secretion systems (ESX-1 to ESX-5) of slow-growing pathogenic mycobacteria have been the focus of intense scrutiny. Genetic studies have been instrumen

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) uses its type-7 secretion system ESX-1 to translocate key virulence effector proteins. Taking a chemical genetics approach, we demonstrate for the first time the importance of mycobacterial proteostasis to ESX-1. We

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis type-7 protein secretion system ESX-1 is a major driver of its virulence. While the functions of most ESX-1 components are characterized, many others remain poorly defined. In this study, we examined the role of EspK, a

Innate Immunity
The cell envelope of pathogenic mycobacteria interfaces with the host. As such, the interaction of bacterial products localized at or released from the cell surface with the host’s immune system can determine the fate of the bacterium in its host.

Domestic pigs share many similarities with humans in their pulmonary anatomy, physiology, and immunology. Accordingly, pigs have been shown to be valuable models to study human tuberculosis (TB). Here we examined the outcome of disease in domestic pi
