General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction disruption of mshB in Mycobacterium smegmatis results in decreased production of mycothiol (5–10% of the parent strain mc2155) but does not abolish mycothiol synthesis completely. Complementation of the MshB2 mutants with the mshB gene results in increased mycothiol production towards the exponential and stationary phases of the bacterial growth cycle. The results suggest that another enzyme is capable of mycothiol biosynthesis by providing N-acetylglucosaminylinositol deacetylation activity in the absence of MshB Mycolicibacterium smegmatis
