Most eukaryotic genes express mRNAs with alternative polyadenylation sites at their 3’ ends. Here we show that polyadenylated 3’ termini in three yeast species (S. cerevisiae, K. lactis, D. hansenii) are remarkably heterogeneous. Instead of a few discrete 3’ ends, the average yeast gene has an “en...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a global killer causing over a million deaths from tuberculosis (TB) every year. It is therefore a major burden on human health. To reduce the deadly impact of TB, we need a better understanding of the strategies used by M. tuberculosis to adapt its...

In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the efflux pump, EfpA, plays an essential but uncharacterised role in its physiology and antibiotic tolerance. In this study, an ATc-inducible CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) system was introduced into M. tuberculosis to knock-down the expression of efpA and determine an...

The human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) devotes a significant fraction of its genome to fatty acid metabolism. Although Mtb depends on host fatty acids as a carbon source, fatty acid b-oxidation is mediated by genetically redundant enzymes, which has hampered the development of antitu...
