Pathogenic mycobacteria contain up to five type VII secretion (T7S) systems, ESX-1 to ESX-5, which have central roles in virulence and viability. One of the conserved components of these systems, the serine protease mycosin (MycP), has been shown to be essential for secretion by ESX-1 and ESX-5. How...

The pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis employs a range of ESX-1 substrates to manipulate the host and build a successful infection. Although the importance of ESX-1 secretion in virulence is well established, the characterization of its individual components and the role of individual substrates is...

Dual RNA-Seq Uncovers ESX-1- and ESX-5-Dependent Virulence Programs of Mycobacterium marinum in Human and Murine Macrophages
The dedicated secretion system ESX-1 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis encoded by the extended RD1 region (extRD1) assures export of the ESAT-6 protein and its partner, the 10 kDa culture filtrate protein CFP-10, and is missing from the vaccine strains M.bovis BCG and M.microti. Here, we systematically ...

The purpose of this study was to examine how ethoxzolamide modulates gene M. tuberculosis gene expression at acidic pH. We observed that ethoxzolamide downregulates genes of the PhoPR regulon. Mtb strain CDC1551 was grown at 37C in T-25 vented, standing tissue culture flasks in 8 ml of buffered 7H9 ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a pathogen of global importance, utilizes the ESX-1 protein secretion system to export virulence factors that disarm host macrophages. Although this secretory pathway is critical for virulence, how ESX-1 is regulated is completely unknown. Here we show that EspR (Rv3849) ...

WhiB6 is a transcription factor that regulates expression of genes encoding ESX-1 substrates. We found that in the absence of the genes encoding conserved membrane components of the ESX-1 system, the expression of the whiB6 gene and genes encoding ESX-1 substrates were reduced.

WhiB6 is required for the secretion-dependent regulation of ESX-1 substrates in pathogenic mycobacteria
These data show that WhiB6 is required for the secretion-dependent regulation of ESX-1 substrates and ESX-1 substrates are regulated independently from the structural components, both during infection and as a result of active secretion.
