A Loss of Function in LprG−Rv1410c Homologues Attenuates Growth during Biofilm Formation in <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i>

MmpL (mycobacterial membrane protein large) proteins are integral membrane proteins that have been implicated in the biosynthesis and/or transport of mycobacterial cell wall lipids. Given the cellular location of these proteins, however, it is unclear how cell wall lipids are transported beyond the...
