Exploring the Role of a Putative Secondary Metabolite Biosynthesis Pathway in <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i> Pathogenesis Using a <i>Xenopus laevis</i> Tadpole Model

Exploring the Role of a Putative Secondary Metabolite Biosynthesis Pathway in <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i> Pathogenesis Using a <i>Xenopus laevis</i> Tadpole Model

<i>Mycobacterium abscessus (Mab)</i> is an emerging human pathogen that has a high rate of incidence in immunocompromised individuals. We have found a putative secondary metabolite pathway within <i>Mab</i>, which may be a key factor in its pathogenesis. This novel pathway is...
