Mycobacterium smegmatis HtrA Blocks the Toxic Activity of a Putative Cell Wall Amidase
Summary: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, withstands diverse environmental stresses in the host. The periplasmic protease HtrA is required only to survive extreme conditions in most bacteria but is predicted to be essential for normal growth in mycobacteria. We confir...
