Identification and in silico functional prediction of lineage-specific SNPs distributed in DosR-related proteins and resuscitation-promoting factor proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Identification and in silico functional prediction of lineage-specific SNPs distributed in DosR-related proteins and resuscitation-promoting factor proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

One-third of the world population is infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which may persist in the latent or dormant state. Bacteria can shift to dormancy when encountering harsh conditions such as low oxygen, nutrient starvation, high acidity and host immune defenses. Genes related to the dorman...
