The actinobacterial WhiB‐like (Wbl) family of transcription factors

4 Sept 2018

Abstract excerpt

Summary The WhiB‐like (Wbl) family of proteins are exclusively found in Actinobacteria. Wbls have been shown to play key roles in virulence and antibiotic resistance in Mycobacteria and Corynebacteria , reflecting their importance during infection by the human pathogens Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium leprae and Corynebacterium diphtheriae . In the antibiotic‐producing Streptomyces , several Wbls have...
