General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function fatty acid biosynthesis and FabI activity are essential for growth even in the presence of exogenous long-chain lipids. FabI is not transcriptionally altered in the presence of exogenous long-chain lipids. Inhibition of FabI or fatty acid synthesis results in loss of viability that is not rescued by exogenous long-chain lipid supplementation. FabI and de novo fatty acid biosynthetic genes are transcriptionally active during infection Francisella tularensis
