This short review summarises the possible networks of host-pathogen inetractions in microRNA mediated viral oncogenesis. This is a clear starting point for a systems level understanding of the role of microRNAs in viral oncogenesis. - Comment on this subject: 0 comments made

Novel biochemical properties of a CRP/FNR family transcription factor from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

This is an interesting paper that provides a possible framework for better understanding of the stress response in mycobacteria. A genome-scale inventory of such genes across different mycobacteria may be able to highlight the importance of CRP-regulons in pathogenesis. Through a series of mobility shift assays, the authors have proved that the CRP family of putative regulons in fact operate as the DNA binding proteins. It will be interesting to know how these CRP proteins might regulate the expression of virulence genes of especially the latent and dormant mycobacteria in response to a variety of environmental and metabolic signals. - Comment on this subject: 0 comments made
