Structural and Functional Studies of Mycothiol Biosynthesis Precursor Enzyme in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
MshA is a glycosyltransferase that synthesizes the precursor of mycothiol, a low-molecular-weight thiol found exclusively in Actinomycetes, including the virulent pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The structure of MshA from Mtb (herein coined as TbMshA) and its complex with uridine diphosp...
