A Mycothiol Synthase Mutant of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Has an Altered Thiol-Disulfide Content and Limited Tolerance to Stress

Mycothiol (MSH) (acetyl-Cys-GlcN-Ins) is the major low-molecular-mass thiol in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. MSH has antioxidant activity, can detoxify a variety of toxic compounds, and helps to maintain the reducing environment of the cell. The production of MSH provides a potential novel target for...
