Mycolic Acid like lipids act as substrates for <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis melH</i>

2025-04-09

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ), the pathogenic bacterium that causes tuberculosis, has developed its own ways of evading defense mechanisms to counteract the lethal effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated within the host macrophages during infection. The melH gene present in Mtb and Mycobacterium marinum ( Mm ) plays an important role to reduce ROS generated during infection. The melH gene enc...
