Role of the Major Antigen of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> in Cell Wall Biogenesis

30 May 1997

Abstract excerpt

The dominant exported proteins and protective antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are a triad of related gene products called the antigen 85 (Ag85) complex. Each has also been implicated in disease pathogenesis through its fibronectin-binding capacities. A carboxylesterase domain was found within the amino acid sequences of Ag85A, B, and C, and each protein acted as a mycolyltransferase involved in the final...
