Structure of Type-I Mycobacterium tuberculosis fatty acid synthase at 3.3 Å resolution
The type-I fatty acid synthase (FAS-I) complex is essential for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and mediates the production of C26 fatty acids that are precursors for the synthesis of mycolic acids. Here the authors present the 3.3 Å resolution cryo-EM structure of Mtb FAS-I, which is of interest f...
