While currently there are no specific drug targets for FadD13, a better understanding of key residues involved in the activation of very-long-chain fatty acids is a promising start to developing new drug targets for ''(M. tb)''. | While currently there are no specific drug targets for FadD13, a better understanding of key residues involved in the activation of very-long-chain fatty acids is a promising start to developing new drug targets for ''(M. tb)''. Recent studies have shown the ''mymA'' operon, which is involved in the maintenance of ''(M. tb)'' cell wall architecture, and which codes for the enzyme FadD13, is upregulated under acidic conditions. <ref name="molecular studies"/> | ||
