**Background of MPT63 Recombinant Protein**
MPT63 is a secreted protein encoded by the *mpt63* gene (*Rv1926c*) in *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). It belongs to the Mycobacterial Proline-Threonine (MPT) family, characterized by small, secreted proteins with roles in bacterial virulence and host-pathogen interactions. MPT63 has a molecular weight of approximately 16 kDa and adopts a β-barrel fold stabilized by two disulfide bonds, a structural feature critical for its stability and function.
While the exact biological role of MPT63 remains partially unclear, studies suggest its involvement in modulating host immune responses. It has been implicated in promoting bacterial survival by interfering with macrophage function or evading host defense mechanisms. Recombinant MPT63. produced via heterologous expression systems like *Escherichia coli*, is widely used to study its structural and functional properties. Structural analyses, including X-ray crystallography, have provided insights into its binding motifs and potential interaction partners.
MPT63 has garnered interest as a diagnostic or vaccine candidate. It exhibits immunogenicity, eliciting antibody and T-cell responses in TB patients, though its efficacy as a protective antigen remains debated. Recombinant MPT63 is also employed in serodiagnostic assays to detect TB-specific antibodies, particularly in extrapulmonary cases. However, its variable expression across clinical strains and limited conservation in non-tuberculous mycobacteria pose challenges for broad applicability.
Recent research explores its role in biofilm formation and iron acquisition, hinting at multifaceted contributions to bacterial persistence. Despite controversies over its pathogenic significance, MPT63 remains a valuable model for understanding mycobacterial secretory proteins and their interplay with host immunity. Further studies are needed to clarify its mechanistic roles and evaluate its potential in novel therapeutic or diagnostic strategies against TB.
