Back-to-Africa introductions of Mycobacterium tuberculosis as the main cause of tuberculosis in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Jacques Fellay, Zhi Ming Xu

In settings with high tuberculosis (TB) endemicity, distinct genotypes of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) often differ in prevalence. However, the factors leading to these differences remain poorly understood. Here we studied the MTBC populat ...

Exploring the interactions between the human and viral genomes

Jacques Fellay

Over the last decade, genome-wide association studies led to major advances in identifying human genetic variants associated with infectious disease susceptibility. On the pathogen side, comparable methods are now applied to identify disease-modulating pat ...

No Evidence for Association of beta-Defensin Genomic Copy Number with HIV Susceptibility, HIV Load during Clinical Latency, or Progression to AIDS

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Common single-nucleotide variation in the host accounts for 25% of the variability in the plasma levels of HIV during the clinical latency stage (viral load set point). However, the role of rare variants and copy number variants remains relatively unexplor ...

Dynamics of HIV Latency and Reactivation in a Primary CD4+T Cell Model

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Istvan Bartha

HIV latency is a major obstacle to curing infection. Current strategies to eradicate HIV aim at increasing transcription of the latent provirus. In the present study we observed that latently infected CD4+ T cells from HIV-infected individuals failed to pr ...

In Vitro and In Vivo Activities of Three Oxazolidinones against Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Anthony Vocat, Ming Zhang

Oxazolidinones represent a new class of antituberculosis drugs that exert their function by inhibiting protein synthesis. Here, we compared the activities of three oxazolidinones, linezolid, PNU-100480, and AZD5847, against latent tuberculosis using a simp ...

A Single-Cell Perspective on Non-Growing but Metabolically Active (NGMA) Bacteria

John McKinney, Giulia Manina

A long-standing and fundamental problem in microbiology is the non-trivial discrimination between live and dead cells. The existence of physically intact and possibly viable bacterial cells that fail to replicate during a more or less protracted period of ...

Haloalkane Dehalogenase LinB is responsible for β- and δ-hexachlorocyclohexane transoformation in sphingobium indicum B90A

Christof Holliger

Incubation of resting cells of Sphingobium indicum B90A, Sphingobium japonicum UT26, and Sphingobium francense Sp+ showed that they were able to transform ß- and -hexachlorocyclohexane (ß- and -HCH, respectively), the most recalcitrant hexachlorocyclohexan ...
