Popis: | International audience; LppX is an important virulence factor essential for surface localization of phthiocerol dimycocerosates (DIM) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Based on Concanavalin A recognition, M. tuberculosis LppX (LppX-tb) was initially proposed to be glycosylated in M. tuberculosis and more recently this glycosylation was characterized by mass spectrometry analysis on LppX-tb expressed and purified from Corynebacterium glutamicum. Here, using this model organism and Mycobacterium smegmatis, we show that S16 and T18 residues of LppX-tb are indeed glycosylated with several hexoses units. Interestingly this glycosylation is strictly dependent on the mannosyl transferase PMT which, in M. tuberculosis, has been reported to be crucial for virulence. Using a site directed mutagenesis approach, we were able to show that the absence of S16 and T18 glycosylation does not alter phthiocerol dimycocerosates (DIM) localization in M. tuberculosis. |
