The PPE2 protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is secreted during infection and facilitates mycobacterial survival inside the host. The potential mechanism of the progression from latent to active ...

The purpose of this study is to identify genetic variants that influence cellular responses, and patterns of M.tb infection and growth in human alveolar macrophages. We used next-generation RNA ...
