M. smegmatis uses new types of biofilm to enclose a liquid core and expand outwards in a weird new way.

Interestingly, Yingke found some complexes bound to uncharacterized proteins MSMEG_0435 & 0436 (Rv0263c & 0264c in M. tuberculosis). A recent preprint from Carl Nathan shows that Rv0263c is needed for Mtb survival during transmission, suggesting it modulates mycolic acid synthesis in TB transmission
