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:Transcriptional profiling of Mycobacterium smegmatis comparing a strain undergoing I-SceI generated DNA damage at a single genomic locus versus a control strain with no I-SceI recognition sequence in its genome (and thus not undergoing double strand DNA breaks Gene designations are from the original annotation, not the updated
Project description:We report the application of RNA-seq technology for high-throughput profiling of gene transcription in RAW264.7 infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra. By obtaining over six billion bases of sequence from mRNA, we generated genome-wide gene transcription maps of RAW264.7 infected with CdhM-related Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra. We find that numerous genes involved in ER stress are significantly affected by CdhM. This finding indicates that CdhM may induce ER stress during Mtb infection of host cells.
