Abstract
We mapped all non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms onto each of the experimental and predicted ESX-1 proteins' structural models and inspected their placement. Varying sizes of conserved regions were found. Next, we analyzed predicted intrinsically disordered regions within our set of proteins, finding two putative long stretches that are fully conserved, and discussed their potential essential role in immunological recognition. Combined, our findings highlight new targets for interfering with Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex virulence.
