EspA Acts as a Critical Mediator of ESX1-Dependent Virulence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Affecting Bacterial Cell Wall Integrity
Garces, Alejandra; Woodworth, Joshua S.; Krastins, Bryan; Atmakuri, Krishnamohan; Chase, Michael Richard; Rothchild, Alissa C.; Ramsdell, Talia Lynn; Lopez, Mary Frances; Behar, Samuel M; Sarracino, David A.; Fortune, Sarah Merritt (Public Library of Science, 2010)Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) requires the ESX1 specialized protein secretion system for virulence, for triggering cytosolic immune surveillance pathways, and for priming an optimal CD8+ T cell response. This suggests ... -
Molecular Motors of ESX-Type Secretion Systems
Ramsdell, Talia Lynn (2012-12-17)Tuberculosis is an enormous global health problem. Despite decades of research, the mechanism(s) by which Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) mediates virulence remains incompletely understood. The ESX-1 secretion system is ...
