Mycolic acid and cholesterol induced transcriptomic adaptations in wild type and Mce complex ATPase subunit deleted strain of <i>M. tuberculosis</i> H37Rv
2024-05-13
Abstract excerpt
During infection and latency, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) primarily relies on lipids as its main energy source. The Mtb mammalian cell entry (Mce) complexes function as lipid transporters with Mkl as the ATPase subunit for substrate translocation. Cholesterol and mycolic acid are essential to the infectiousness and pathogenicity of Mtb. Here, we have investigated the transcriptomic responses of wild type and...
