Dear Mtb science friends. @richiam95 from our group has made an important update to our Mtb Transposon Sequencing Database. One can now explore co-essentiality signals (i.e. correlation in log2-FC profiles) across the ~150 screens. We hope it's helpful! mtbtndb.app/co-essentiality

Replying to @mike_wuo
@mike_wuo @chaaawie @TeddyWarner4 led a team to probe the consequences of antibiotic treatment on the mycobacterial cell envelope (#TB) in real time. They found that the probe reveals phenotypic differences between #antibiotics. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac… ( a drug cocktail below)

Another paper from the lab. The now Dr. Ng, @weilynnng , describes how the nucleoid associated protein, Lsr2, helps promote chromosomal mutagenesis in mycobacteria. journals.asm.org/doi/full/10…

A nucleoid-associated protein is involved in the emergence of antibiotic resistance by promoting...

Unlike many other pathogens, Mycobacterium tuberculosis has limited ability for horizontal gene transfer, a major mechanism for developing antibiotic resistance. Thus, the mechanisms that facilitate...
