The Mycobacterium tuberculosis ESAT-6 homologue in Listeria monocytogenes is dispensable for growth in vitro and in vivo.

Infection and immunity - 1 Sept 2005

Way Sing Sing, Wilson Christopher B

Abstract excerpt

ESAT-6 is a virulence determinant in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and a member of a conserved group of proteins in a variety of other bacteria. A targeted deletion of the homologous gene in Listeria was generated, and in contrast to that observed for mycobacteria, this locus was not required for Listeria virulence.
