1OZP, 1P0H - PubMed Abstract: 
Mycothiol is the predominant low-molecular weight thiol produced by actinomycetes, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The last reaction in the biosynthetic pathway for mycothiol is catalyzed by mycothiol synthase (MshD), which acetylates the cysteinyl amine of cysteine-glucosamine-inositol (Cys-GlcN-Ins) ...
