Context-dependent acetylation of the virulence regulator PhoP accounts for carbon-source specific mycobacterial growth inhibition under acidic conditions

Partha Paul, Khushboo Mehta, Rajat Ujjainiya…·Dibyendu Sarkar

The paper shows that PhoP acetylation, influenced by acidic conditions and carbon sources, affects mycobacterial growth and virulence.
