The gene fmt, encoding tRNA(fMet)-formyl transferase, is essential for normal growth of M. bovis, but not for viability
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a major health threat, necessitating novel drug targets. Protein synthesis in bacteria uses initiator tRNA(i) charged with formylated methionine residue. Deletion of the formylase gene, tRNA(fMet)-formyl transferase (fmt), causes severe growth-retardation in E. coli and...
