Identification of host-dependent survival factors for intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis through an siRNA screen.
The stable infection of host macrophages by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) involves, and depends on, the attenuation of the diverse microbicidal responses mounted by the host cell. This is primarily achieved through targeted perturbations of the host cellular signaling machinery. Therefore, in vie...
