This protein has a molecular weight of approximately 30 kDa. Ag85B mainly expresses in Mycobacterium species including Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It catalyzes the formation of trehalose dimycolate from mycolic acid and trehalose which are essential components of the mycobacterial cell wall.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nAg85B plays an important role in the synthesizing of the mycobacterial cell envelope. The enzyme contributes significantly to the cell wall integrity and pathogenicity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Ag85B forms part of a complex with other proteins including Ag85A and Ag85C which collectively engage in lipid transfer processes necessary for cell wall biosynthesis. This contributes to cellular processes that are important for the replication and survival of the pathogen within host cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nDiacylglycerol acyltransferase\/mycolyltransferase Ag85B stands essential in the mycobacterial lipid biosynthesis pathway. It participates actively in the synthesis of the cell wall that is critical for mycobacterial survival and virulence. Within this pathway it closely interacts with proteins like Ag85A and Ag85C. These relationships are significant within the context of the larger fatty acid synthesis network which highlights the interconnected nature of these enzymatic functions within the bacterial life cycle.\u003cbr\u003e\nAg85B is directly linked to tuberculosis through its pivotal role in mycobacterial pathogenicity. This protein emerges as a central target for tuberculosis vaccine development. Its function display connection with other proteins such as Ag85A in forming stronger resistance to host immune responses. Understanding Ag85B's role can advance therapeutic strategies aimed at combating mycobacterial infections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843893711017,"sku":"ab236191","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab236191","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
