Type VII secretion systems (T7SSs) have a key role in the secretion of effector proteins in
non-pathogenic mycobacteria and pathogenic mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium …

Mycobacteria are microorganisms distributed in the environment worldwide, and some of
them, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or M. leprae, are pathogenic. The hydrophobic …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its close relative Mycobacterium marinum infect
macrophages and induce the formation of granulomas, organized macrophage-rich immune …

Pathogenic species from the Mycobacterium genus are responsible for a number of adverse
health conditions in humans and animals that threaten health security and the economy …

Mycobacteria, such as the pathogen M. tuberculosis, utilize up to five paralogous type VII
secretion systems to transport proteins across their cell envelope. Since these proteins …

Background Based on gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) results of a
previous study, six metabolites including alpha-terpineol, geranyl acetate, linalool, myrcenol …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) utilizes sophisticated machinery called the type VII
secretion system to translocate virulence factors across its complex lipid membrane. EspB …

The antimicrobial application of carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs),
capped CNTs, CNT2–5, C60, C70, HO-C60,[C60] 2, and [C60] 3 fullerenes, is increasing …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is initiated by inhalation of bacteria into lung
alveoli, where they are phagocytosed by resident macrophages. Intracellular Mtb replication …

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis type-7 protein secretion system ESX-1 is a major driver of
its virulence. While the functions of most ESX-1 components are characterized, many others …
