<i>De novo</i> cobalamin biosynthesis, transport and assimilation and cobalamin-mediated regulation of methionine biosynthesis in <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i>
2020-11-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cobalamin is an essential co-factor in all domains of life, yet its biosynthesis is restricted to some bacteria and archaea. Mycobacterium smegmatis , an environmental saprophyte frequently used as surrogate for the obligate human pathogen, M. tuberculosis , carries approximately 30 genes predicted to be involved in de novo cobalamin biosynthesis. M. smegmatis also encodes multiple cobalamin...
