EspM Is a Conserved Transcription Factor That Regulates Gene Expression in Response to the ESX-1 System

Mycobacterial pathogens use the ESX-1 system to transport protein substrates that mediate essential interactions with the host during infection. We previously demonstrated that in addition to transporting proteins, the ESX-1 secretion system regulates gene expression. Here, we identify a conserved t...
