LITERATURE
evolution
-
members of the Ag85 family, Ag85A, Ag85B, and Ag85C, share high sequence and structural homology characterized by an alpha,beta-hydrolase fold and a hydrophobic fibronectin-binding domain. Their active sites are highly conserved, featuring a histidine, aspartic acid or glutamic acid and serine catalytic triad, a hydrophobic tunnel for the lipids and two trehalose binding sites
malfunction
metabolism
glucose causes Mycobacterium avium to down-regulate trehalose dimycolate expression while up-regulating glucose monomycolate. In vitro, the mechanism of reciprocal regulation of trehalose dimycolate and glucose monomycolate involves competitive substrate selection by antigen 85A. The switch from trehalose dimycolate to glucose monomycolate biosynthesis occurs near the physiological concentration of glucose present in mammalian hosts. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that glucose monomycolate is produced in vivo by mcobacteria in mouse lung
