Project description:In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the PhoPR two-component regulatory system controls production and secretion of proteins and lipid virulence effectors. Several mutations, present in phoR of Mycobacterium canettii relative to M. tuberculosis, impact the expression of the PhoP regulon and the pathogenicity of the strains. Here, we analyse by RNA-seq the expression profile of PhoP-regulated genes between the two M. tuberculosis strains H37Rv and HN878 and the two M. canettii isolates STB-Ks and STB-Kr.
Project description:This study aims to identify the specific miRNA of mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) infected THP-1 by next-generation sequencing, and further to explore the role of miRNA in innate immunity against M.tb infection.Comprehensive analysis of the next-generation sequencing results showed that the expression of miR-99a-5p was significantly lower in the MTB infected THP-1 cells.
Project description:Next Generation Sequencing in cancer: a feasibility study in France to assess sample circuit and to perform analyzes within a limited time.
