Two promoters in the esx-3 gene cluster of Mycobacterium smegmatis respond inversely to different iron concentrations in vitro

BACKGROUND: The ESX secretion system, also known as the Type VII secretion system, is mostly found in mycobacteria and plays important roles in nutrient acquisition and host pathogenicity. One of the five ESXs, ESX-3, is associated with mycobactin-mediated iron acquisition. Although the functions of...
