Abstract

Type VII (ESX) secretion systems of pathogenic mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are crucial for intracellular survival, host cell lysis, and the subsequent cell-to-cell spread. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Rybniker et al. (2014) have used these characteristics to identify two classes of type VII secretion inhibitors.
