Mycobacterium abscessus virulence traits unraveled by transcriptomic profiling in amoeba and macrophages.

Free-living amoebae are thought to represent an environmental niche in which amoeba-resistant bacteria may evolve towards pathogenicity. To get more insights into factors playing a role for adaptation to intracellular life, we characterized the transcriptomic activities of the emerging pathogen Myco...
