The tryptophan biosynthetic pathway is essential for Mycobacterium tuberculosis to cause disease.

Biochemical Society transactions - 30 Oct 2020

Lott J Shaun

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), is the most significant cause of death from a single infectious agent worldwide. Antibiotic-resistant strains of M. tuberculosis represent a threat to effective treatment, and the long duration, toxicity and complexity of current chemotherapy for antibiotic-resistant disease presents a need for new therapeutic approaches with novel modes of...
