Mycolic Acid Modification by the mmaA4 Gene of M. tuberculosis Modulates IL-12 Production

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has evolved many strategies to evade elimination by the host immune system, including the selective repression of macrophage IL-12p40 production. To identify the M. tuberculosis genes responsible for this aspect of immune evasion, we used a macrophage cell line expressing...
