Homotypic dimerization of a maltose kinase for molecular scaffolding

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) uses maltose-1-phosphate to synthesize α-glucans that make up the major component of its outer capsular layer. Maltose kinase (MaK) catalyzes phosphorylation of maltose. The molecular basis for this phosphorylation is currently not understood. Here, we describe the f...
