Figure 3. Proposed model showing the interaction of transcription regulatory factors in antibiotic resistance in M. smegmatis.
We propose that MSMEG_6129 (green) regulates a hitherto unknown sigma factor required for transcription of antibiotic resistance genes. MSMEG_6129 is presumably under negative regulation by MSMEG_6127 (red) and MSMEG_5437 (purple).
