Mutational Analysis of the Respiratory Nitrate Transporter NarK2 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis induces nitrate reductase activity in response to decreasing oxygen levels. This is due to regulation of both the transcription and the activity of the nitrate transporter NarK2. A model of NarK2 structure is proposed containing 12 membrane spanning regions consistent wit...
