M. tuberculosis relies on trace oxygen to maintain energy homeostasis and survive in hypoxic environments
Summary: The bioenergetic mechanisms by which Mycobacterium tuberculosis survives hypoxia are poorly understood. Current models assume that the bacterium shifts to an alternate electron acceptor or fermentation to maintain membrane potential and ATP synthesis. Counterintuitively, we find here that o...
