Regulation of virulence genes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001
Mycobacterium tuberculosis has demonstrated remarkable ability to survive in diverse conditions encountered during the infection process. These involve surviving the bactericidal stresses within the macrophage, the anaerobic and nutritionally altered environment of the granuloma, and the metabolically inactive latent state.
