Development of an In Vitro Membrane Model to Study the Function of EsxAB Heterodimer and Establish the Role of EsxB in Membrane Permeabilizing Activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

EsxA and EsxB are secreted as a heterodimer and have been shown to play critical roles in phagosome rupture and translocation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis into the cytosol. Recent in vitro studies have suggested that the EsxAB heterodimer is dissociated upon acidification, which might allow EsxA in...
