I’m so excited and super proud of my students Novi & Haley. They published their co-author paper showing that the EXS-4 type 7 secretion system is required for heme iron utilization in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Also, a huge thanks to our collaborators. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

Role of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis ESX-4 Secretion System in Heme Iron Utilization and Pore...

M. tuberculosis (Mtb) is completely dependent on iron acquisition in the host to cause disease. The largest source of iron for Mtb in the human host is heme.
