Transposon Mutagenesis of Mb0100 at the ppe1-nrp Locus in Mycobacterium bovis Disrupts Phthiocerol Dimycocerosate (PDIM) and Glycosylphenol-PDIM Biosynthesis, Producing an Avirulent Strain with Vaccine Properties At Least Equal to Those of M. bovis BCG

The unusual and complex cell wall of pathogenic mycobacteria plays a major role in pathogenesis, with specific complex lipids acting as defensive, offensive, or adaptive effectors of virulence. The phthiocerol and phthiodiolone dimycocerosate esters (PDIMs) comprise one such category of virulence-en...
