Protection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from Reactive Oxygen Species Conferred by the mel2 Locus Impacts Persistence and Dissemination

Persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in humans represents a major roadblock to elimination of tuberculosis. We describe identification of a locus in M. tuberculosis, mel2, that displays similarity to bacterial bioluminescent loci and plays an important role during persistence in mice. We constr...
