Evolutionarily divergent Mycobacterium tuberculosis CTP synthase filaments are under selective pressure

Abstract The final and rate-limiting enzyme in pyrimidine biosynthesis, cytidine triphosphate synthase (CTPS), is essential for the viability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other mycobacteria.
