Structural basis of siderophore export and drug efflux by Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Abstract To replicate and cause disease, Mycobacterium tuberculosis secretes siderophores called mycobactins to scavenge iron from the human host. Two closely related transporters, MmpL4 and MmpL5, are required for mycobactin secretion and drug efflux. In clinical strains, overproduction of MmpL5 co...
