Mycobacterium marinum is a pathogenic bacterium that causes infections in both fish and humans. The PE/PPE protein family is unique to mycobacteria and has been implicated in various aspects of mycobacterial pathogenicity. Understanding the presence and potential function of these proteins in M. mar...
ORGANISM(S): Mycobacterium marinum (strain ATCC BAA-535 / M)
Detection of species-specific proteotypic peptides for accurate and easy characterization of infectious non-tuberculous mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium vaccae is essential. Therefore, we carried out reanalysis of publicly avai...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the world’s leading bacterial infectious agent. The absence of an effective vaccine and the rise of multi-drug resistant M. tuberculosis strains emphasize the need to identify novel targets for prevention and intervention strategies. Previously, the M. marinum orthologu...
