Modulation of riboflavin biosynthesis and utilization in mycobacteria

2023-08-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Riboflavin (vitamin B 2 ) is the precursor of the flavin coenzymes, FAD and FMN, which play a central role in cellular redox metabolism. While humans must obtain riboflavin from dietary sources, certain microbes, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), can biosynthesize riboflavin de novo . Riboflavin precursors have also been implicated in the activation of mucosal-associated invariant T...
