DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2021.09.051
Abstract: Phosphofructokinase B (PfkB) belongs to the ribokinase family, which uses the phosphorylated sugar as substrate, and catalyzes fructose-6-phosphate into fructose-1,6-diphosphate. However, the structural basis of Mycobacterium marinum PfkB is not clear. Here, we found that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2018.07.022
Abstract: ABSTRACT Host lipid metabolism is an important target for subversion by pathogenic mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The appearance of foam cells within the granuloma are well‐characterised effects of chronic tuberculosis. The zebrafish‐Mycobacterium marinum infection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcpa.2020.09.013
Abstract: A two-year-old male African pygmy hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris) presented with lethargy and anorexia. Ultrasonographic and radiographic examinations revealed splenomegaly and pneumonia, respectively. Prominent leucocytosis, consisting mainly of large atypical eosinophils, was observed in a peripheral blood… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Mycobacterium marinum is a prevalent nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM)‐infecting teleosts. Conversely, little is known about mycobacteriosis in elasmobranchs, and M. marinum infection has never been reported from the subclass. This study investigated the histopathological characteristics… read more here.
