Proteins of Mycobacterium bovis BCG induced in the Wayne dormancy model.

ABSTRACT: Oxygen starvation triggers the shiftdown of the obligate aerobe Mycobacterium bovis BCG to a state of dormancy. Two-dimensional electrophoresis showed a drastic up-regulation of the alpha-crystallin homolog, the putative response regulator Rv3133c, and the two conserved hypothetical proteins Rv2623 and Rv2626c in dormant bacilli.
