Mechanistic studies of mycobacterial glycolipid biosynthesis by the mannosyltransferase PimE

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB), a leading cause of death among infectious diseases globally, is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The pathogenicity of Mtb is largely attributed to its complex cell envelope, which includes a class of glycolipids called phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides (PIMs...
