PE_PGRS proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: A specialized molecular task force at the forefront of host–pathogen interaction

To the PE_PGRS protein subfamily belongs a group of surface-exposed mycobacterial antigens that in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) H37Rv accounts to more than 65 genes, 51 of which are thought to express a functional protein. PE_PGRS proteins share a conserved structural architecture with three mai...
