Evaluation of rRNA depletion methods for capturing the RNA virome from environmental surfaces
Objective Metatranscriptomic analysis of RNA viromes on built-environment surfaces is hampered by low RNA yields and high abundance of rRNA. Therefore, we evaluated the quality of libraries, efficiency of rRNA depletion, and viral detection sensitivity ...

Comparison of DNA and RNA sequencing of total nucleic acids from human cervix for metagenomics
Although metagenomics and metatranscriptomics are commonly used to identify bacteria and viruses in human samples, few studies directly compare these strategies.

In planta Transcriptome Analysis of Pseudomonas syringae
Profiling bacterial transcriptome in planta is challenging due to the low abundance of bacterial RNA in infected plant tissues. Here, we describe a protocol to profile transcriptome of a foliar bacterial pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv.

cDNA-RNA subtractive hybridization reveals increased expression of mycocerosic acid synthase in intracellular Mycobacterium bovis BCG. [PDF]
Identifying genes that are differentially expressed by Mycobacterium bovis BCG after phagocytosis by macrophages will facilitate the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of host cell-intracellular pathogen interactions. To identify such genes a cDNA-

Large-scale and significant expression from pseudogenes in Sodalis glossinidius – a facultative bacterial endosymbiont [PDF]
The majority of bacterial genomes have high coding efficiencies, but there are some genomes of intracellular bacteria that have low gene density. The genome of the endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius contains almost 50 % pseudogenes containing mutations ...

Structural Biology of Bacterial RNA Polymerase
Since its discovery and characterization in the early 1960s (Hurwitz, J. The discovery of RNA polymerase. J. Biol. Chem. 2005, 280, 42477–42485), an enormous amount of biochemical, biophysical and genetic data has been collected on bacterial RNA ...

Salmonella produce microRNA-like RNA fragment Sal-1 in the infected cells to facilitate intracellular survival. [PDF]
Salmonella have developed a sophisticated machinery to evade immune clearance and promote survival in the infected cells. Previous studies were mostly focused on either bacteria itself or host cells, the interaction mechanism of host-pathogen awaits ...
