AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of tuberculosis in a range of animal species and man, with worldwide annual losses to agriculture of $3 billion. The human burden of tuberculosis caused by the bovine tubercle bacillus is still largely unknown. M. ...
Searching for matches between large collections of short (14-30 nucleotides) words and sequence databases comprising full genomes or transcriptomes is a common task in biological sequence analysis. We investigated the performance of simple indexing strateg ...
Genomics and the associated downstream technologies are generating vast data sets that provide new opportunities for understanding and combating both infectious and genetic diseases in humans. The genomic approach has been applied to tuberculosis, a major ...
The information deduced from the genome sequence of Mycobacterium leprae is of immense value for the chemotherapy of leprosy. Knowing the complete set of genes, enzymes and proteins allows us to understand why some drugs are without effect whereas others a ...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an intracellular pathogen which can survive and multiply within the phagosomal compartment of the macrophage, and in doing so has to withstand the various macrophage defense mechanisms, which include limitation of iron and oth ...
About 2% of the genome of Mycobacterium leprae is composed of repetitive DNA. There are more than 26 extinct IS elements together with four families of dispersed repeats, present in five copies or more, RLEP (37 copies), REPLEP (15 copies), LEPREP (eight c ...
Everything that we need to know about Mycobacterium leprae, a close relative of the tubercle bacillus, is encrypted in its genome. Inspection of the 3.27 Mb genome sequence of an armadillo-derived Indian isolate of the leprosy bacillus identified 1,605 gen ...
The imminent completion of the genome sequence of Mycobacterium bovis will reveal the genetic blueprint for this most successful pathogen. Comparative analysis with the genome sequences of M. tuberculosis and M. bovis BCG promises to expose the genetic bas ...
Since the publication of the complete genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in 1998, there has been a marked intensification and diversification of activities in the field of tuberculosis research. Among the areas that have advanced spectacularly a ...
Original genome annotations need to be regularly updated if the information they contain is to remain accurate and relevant. Here the complete re-annotation of the genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv is presented almost 4 years after ...
