Self-recycling and partially conservative replication of mycobacterial methylmannose polysaccharides
The mechanism of methylmannose polysaccharide (MMP) biogenesis in nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is characterized, which involves an MMP-specific hydrolase (MmpH) and a rare mannosyltransferase (ManT). MmpH and ManT structures are presented.
