PPE and PE_PGRS proteins of <i>Mycobacterium marinum</i> are transported via the type VII secretion system ESX‐5
9 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
ESX-5 is one of the five type VII secretion systems found in mycobacteria. These secretion systems are also known as ESAT-6-like secretion systems. Here, we have determined the secretome of ESX-5 by a proteomic approach in two different strains of Mycobacterium marinum. Comparison of the secretion profile of wild-type strains and their ESX-5 mutants showed that a number of PE_PGRS and PPE-MPTR proteins are...
