Repression of mab_1999 impairs growth and alters cellular morphology of Mycobacterium abscessus
Our findings suggest that mab_1999 is involved in cell division and cell wall integrity in M. abscessus. However, further investigation is necessary to confirm its identity as FtsL and to fully elucidate its role in the cell division process and cell wall synthesis.
