The sulfate transporter of M. tuberculosis, a typical ABC transporter family ATPase, is the sole membrane transport protein in sulfate assimilation. It consists of the CysT/CysW/CysA proteins in 1:1:2 stoichiometry. cysA null mutants in M. bovis were unable to take up sulfate but could be rescued by M. tuberculosis cysA (Wooff et al, 2002).
