GlnR-Mediated Regulation of Short-Chain Fatty Acid Assimilation in Mycobacterium smegmatis

Assimilation of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) plays an important role in the survival and lipid biosynthesis of Mycobacteria. However, regulation of this process has not been thoroughly described. In the present work, we demonstrate that GlnR as a well-known nitrogen-sensing regulator transcriptio...
