Abstract excerpt

Trehalose (alpha-D-glucopyranosyl-alpha'-D-glucopyranoside) is essential for the growth of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis but not for the viability of the phylogenetically related corynebacteria. To determine the role of trehalose in the physiology of these bacteria, the so-called Corynebacterineae, mutant strains of Corynebacterium glutamicum unable to synthesize trehalose due to the knock-out of...
