Nitrogen regulator GlnR directly controls transcription of <i>prpDBC</i> operon involved in methylcitrate cycle in <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i>

2018-06-21

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium tuberculosis utilizes the fatty acids of the host as the carbon source. While the metabolism of odd chain fatty acids produces propionyl-CoA. Methylcitrate cycle is essential for Mycobacteria to utilize the propionyl-CoA to persist and grow on these fatty acids. In M. smegmatis , methylcitrate synthase, methylcitrate dehydratase, and methylisocitrate lyase involved in methylcitrate cycle were respec...
