Analysis of Positive Selection in Clinical Isolates
*new*
Analysis of dN/dS (omega) in two collections of Mtb clinical isolates using GenomegaMap (Window model) (see description of methods)
Moldova: 2,057 clinical isolates
global set: 5,195 clinical isolates from 15 other countries
In the omega plots, the black line shows the mean estimate of omega (dN/dS) at each codon, and the blue lines are the bounds for the 95% credible interval (95%CI, from MCMC sampling).
A gene is under significant positive selection if the lower-bound of the 95%CI of omega (lower blue line) exceeds 1.0 at any codon.
Gene interactions based on ChIPSeq and Transcription Factor Over-Expression (TFOE) (Systems Biology)
NOTE:
Green edges represent the connected genes being classified as differentially essential as a result of the middle gene being knocked out. These interactions are inferred based on RNASeq.
VapC toxins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis are ribonucleases that differentially inhibit growth and are neutralized by cognate VapB antitoxins. authors,BA. Ahidjo,D. Kuhnert,JL. McKenzie,EE. Machowski,BG. Gordhan,V. Arcus,GL. Abrahams,V. Mizrahi PLoS ONE 2011

We report the heterologous toxicity of these TA loci in Escherichia coli and show that only a few of the M. tuberculosis-encoded toxins can inhibit E. coli growth and have a killing effect. This killing effect can be suppressed by coexpression of the cognate antitoxin.
