Mycobacterium tuberculosis adapts to cellular stresses such as decreased oxygen concentration, at least in part, by upregulation of the dormancy survival regulon, which is thought to be important for the bacterium's ability to enter a persistent stat...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains disrupted in mce3 and mce4 operons are attenuated in mice (2008)
Journal Article
Senaratne, R. H., Sidders, B., Sequeira, P., Saunders, G., Dunphy, K., Marjanovic, C., …Riley, L. W. (2008). Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains disrupted in mce3 and mce4 operons are attenuated in mice. Journal of Medical Microbiology, 57(2), 164-170. https://doi.org/10.1099/jmm.0.47454-0

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome contains four copies of an operon called mce (mce1-4). Previously we reported that M. tuberculosis disrupted in the mce1 operon is more virulent than wild-type M. tuberculosis in mice. We generated single deletio...
