Transcriptional adaptation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis within macrophages: Insights into the phagosomal environment [PDF]
, 2003 Little is known about the biochemical environment in phagosomes harboring an infectious agent. To assess the state of this organelle we captured the transcriptional responses of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in macrophages from wild-type and nitric ...
