Experimental Evolution Reveals Redox State Modulates Mycobacterial Pathogenicity
2021-12-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Understanding how Mycobacterium tuberculosis has evolved into a professional pathogen is helpful in studying its pathogenesis and for designing vaccines. We investigated how the evolutionary adaptation of M. smegmatis mc 2 51 to an important clinical stressor H 2 O 2 allows bacteria undergo coordinated genetic mutations, resulting in increased pathogenicity. Whole-genome sequencing identifi...
