Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the causative agent of tuberculosis. Access to iron in
host macrophages depends on iron-chelating siderophores called mycobactins and is …

Mycobactins are a family of membrane-associated siderophores required for Mycobacterium
tuberculosis to adapt to its intracellular habitat. These lipophilic siderophores have been …

To measure molecular changes underlying pathogen adaptation, we generated a
searchable dataset of more than 12,000 mass spectrometry events, corresponding to lipids …

Mycobactin acylation plays a crucial role in the ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to
acquire intracellular iron during infection. M. tuberculosis Rv1347c, the lysine Nε …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, depends on the secretion
of salicylate-based siderophores called mycobactins for the acquisition of extracellular iron …

Iron is an essential element for life, but its soluble form is scarce in the environment and is
rarer in the human body. Mtb (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) produces two aryl-capped …

The intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of
tuberculosis, which is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. The survival of M. tuberculosis …

The mycobactin siderophore system is present in many Mycobacterium species, including
M. tuberculosis and other clinically relevant mycobacteria. This siderophore system is …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the cause of tuberculosis, is a devastating human pathogen.
The emergence of multidrug resistance in recent years has prompted a search for new drug …

The production of mycobactin (MBT) by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is essential for this
bacterium to access iron when it is in an infected host. Due to this essential function, there is …
