Mycobacterial protein PE_PGRS30 induces macrophage apoptosis through prohibitin 2 mitochondrial function interference
PE_PGRS30 belongs to the PE_PGRS protein family and is characterized by a conserved Pro-Glu (PE) domain and a typically polymorphic GC-rich sequence (PGRS) domain. PE_PGRS30 is a virulence factor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that induces macrophage cell death. We found that RAW264.7 cells and murin...
