Project description:We employed a proteogenomics workflow to identify microproteins encoded by small Open Reading Frames (ORFs) in the genome of Mycobacterium smegmatis strain mc²155.
Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:Related surrogate species are often used to study the molecular basis of pathogenicity of a pathogen on the basis of a shared set of biological features generally attributable to a shared core genome consisting of orthologous genes. An important and understudied aspect, however, is the extent to which regulatory features affecting the expression of such shared genes are present in both species. Here we report on an analysis of whole transcriptome maps for an important member of the TB complex Mycobacterium bovis and a closely related model organism for studying mycobacterial pathogenicity Mycobacterium marinum.
