Interaction of ATP with a small heat shock protein from Mycobacterium leprae: effect on its structure and function.

Interaction of ATP with a small heat shock protein from Mycobacterium leprae: effect on its structure and function.

Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is an important phosphate metabolite abundantly found in Mycobacterium leprae bacilli. This pathogen does not derive ATP from its host but has its own mechanism for the generation of ATP. Interestingly, this molecule as well as several antigenic proteins act as b...
