Mycobacterium tuberculosis requires SufT for Fe-S cluster maturation, metabolism, and survival in vivo.

Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster proteins carry out essential cellular functions in diverse organisms, including the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The mechanisms underlying Fe-S cluster biogenesis are poorly defined in Mtb. Here, we show that Mtb SufT (Rv1466), a DUF59 domain-containing...
