Two‐component sensor histidine kinases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Beacons for niche navigation

Abstract excerpt

Intracellular bacterial pathogens such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis are remarkably adept at surviving within a host, employing a variety of mechanisms to counteract host defenses and establish a protected niche. Constant surveying of the environment is key for pathogenic mycobacteria to discern their immediate location and coordinate the expression of genes necessary for adaptation. Two-component systems...
