A small RNA encoded in the Rv2660c locus of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is induced during starvation and infection.
Enhanced transcription of the Rv2660c locus in response to starvation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv encouraged addition of the predicted Rv2660c protein to an improved vaccine formulation. Using strand-specific RNA sequencing, we show that the up-regulated transcript is in fact a small RNA enc...
