The Mycobacterium tuberculosis FAS‐II condensing enzymes: their role in mycolic acid biosynthesis, acid‐fastness, pathogenesis and in future drug development

Mycolic acids are very long-chain fatty acids representing essential components of the mycobacterial cell wall. Considering their importance, characterization of key enzymes participating in mycolic acid biosynthesis not only allows an understanding of their role in the physiology of mycobacteria, b...
