Role of Premycofactocin Synthase in Growth, Microaerophilic Adaptation, and Metabolism of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Mycobacterium tuberculosis</named-content>
ABSTRACT Mycofactocin is a new class of peptide-derived redox cofactors present in a selected group of bacteria including Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mycofactocin biosynthesis requires at least six genes, including mftD, encoding putative lactate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the penultimate biosyn...
