Ascorbate and aldarate metabolism (WP1622)

Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Source: [http://www.genome.jp/kegg-bin/show_pathway?mtu00053 KEGG Pathways]. The Ascorbate and aldarate metabolism for Mycobacterium tuberculosis is not completely understood yet; conversions which are not clear are depicted with a dashed arrow. Two out of the three literature references provided for this pathway are for E. coli and could be not specific enough for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
