Tuberculosis transcriptomics: host protection and immune evasion mechanisms

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the leading cause of death from an infectious disease. The success of the pathogen lies in its ability to subvert hostile intracellular macrophage environment. We performed genome-wide transcriptional deep sequencing on total RNA in murine bone marrow-derived macr...
