Infectious diseases account for nearly 40% of the burden of human mortality and morbidity in low-income countries, of which 7% is attributable to zoonoses and 13% to recently emerging diseases from animals. One of the strategic approaches for effecti... Read More about 'One Health' infectious diseases surveillance in Tanzania: Are we all on board the same flight?.

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., Reader, J. R., Lima, P., Chan, S., Kendall, S. L., McFadden, J., & Riley, L. W. (2008).

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...

Quantification of global transcription patterns in prokaryotes using spotted microarrays. Genome Biology, 8(12), R265. https://doi.org/10.1186/gb-2007-8-12-r265

We describe an analysis, applicable to any spotted microarray dataset produced using genomic DNA as a reference, that quantifies prokaryotic levels of mRNA on a genome-wide scale. Applying this to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, we validate the technique... Read More about Quantification of global transcription patterns in prokaryotes using spotted microarrays.
