Mycobacterium bovis antigen (null)

Target
null
Molecular classification
Other, Glycoprotein, Secreted protein, Cell wall component
01

Overview

"Mycobacterium bovis antigen" refers collectively to diverse proteins, glycoproteins, and cell wall components from M. bovis, a pathogenic bacterium and the source of BCG vaccine. These antigens, such as MPB70, MPB83, and ESAT-6, induce strong cellular immune responses and are used to study tuberculosis infection, diagnose exposure, and develop vaccines and immunotherapies. However, the term is imprecise—structured target data should focus on clearly defined molecular targets (e.g., “MPB70 antigen”)[1][7].
