Cholesterol metabolism and intrabacterial potassium homeostasis are intrinsically related in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Potassium (K+) is the most abundant intracellular cation, but much remains unknown regarding how K+ homeostasis is integrated with other key bacterial biology aspects. Here, we show that K+ homeostasis disruption (CeoBC K+ uptake system deletion) impedes Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) response to,...
