Mycobacterial MCE proteins as transporters that control lipid homeostasis of the cell wall
Mammalian cell entry (mce) genes are not only present in genomes of pathogenic mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the causative agent of tuberculosis), but also in saprophytic and opportunistic mycobacterial species. MCE are conserved cell-wall proteins encoded by mce operons, which...
