A mobile ESX type VII secretion system enhances intracellular persistence in globally distributed <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i>

2026-01-26

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium abscessus are non-tuberculous mycobacteria that are widespread in the environment and of increasing global clinical significance. Accumulating evidence shows that M. abscessus has emerged as an important pathogen, driven by highly drug-resistant lineages, enhanced transmissibility and the acquisition of specific virulence factors. In this study, we describe a previously uncharacterised ESX secretion...
