Molecular features and properties of mycobacterial proteins linked to tuberculosis pathogenesis
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome codes for 11 pairs of CFP-10/ESAT-6 proteins (Esx family) as well as the apparatus required for secretion of these proteins. The core machinery for the secretion of ESAT-6 and CFP-10 is encoded by their surrounding genes. Recent studies also identified a distant...
