A Tuberculosis Molecular Bacterial Load Assay (TB-MBLA)10:41

A Tuberculosis Molecular Bacterial Load Assay (TB-MBLA)

14.7K
We describe a tuberculosis molecular bacterial load assay test performed after heat inactivation of sputum. Heat inactivation renders sputum samples noninfectious and obviates the need for containment level 3 laboratories for tuberculosis molecular...

Separation and Fractionation of Cell Wall and Cell Membrane Proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis for Downstream Protein Analysis

575
This protocol separates insoluble cell wall and membrane proteins into simple fractions (1-5 proteins) using preparative isoelectric focusing (IEF) based on isoelectric point, followed by separation by molecular weight. The resulting fractions can be used directly for immunological and proteomic analysis without further...

Preparation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Culture Filtrate to Understand TB Pathogenesis07:32

Preparation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Culture Filtrate to Understand TB Pathogenesis

1.1K
Here, we demonstrate the preparation of Mtb culture filtrate (CF), which is the bacterial growth media that consists of proteins secreted by the bacteria. Mtb secretes proteins to modulate host signaling and immune response, which are crucial for pathogenesis. The CFs prepared are analyzed by mass spectrometry to identify all the secretory...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Genomic technologies generate high-throughput omics data for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) isolates.
  • Publicly available biological databases store this M.tb data, but fragmentation hinders effective data leveraging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an integrated M.tb omics knowledge-base.
  • To facilitate complex federated queries across heterogeneous data sources.

Main Methods:

  • Developed Combat-TB-NeoDB, an integrated M.tb omics knowledge-base using Neo4j.
  • Integrated data using a labeled property graph model bound to the Chado ontology.
  • Linked prominent biological databases and M.tb variant data from literature.

Main Results:

  • Combat-TB-NeoDB enables researchers to perform complex federated queries.
  • The knowledge-base links disparate M.tb omics datasets and literature data.
  • Provides a unified platform for M.tb research.

Conclusions:

  • Combat-TB-NeoDB enhances the accessibility and utility of M.tb omics data.
  • Facilitates deeper insights into M.tb biology and drug resistance through integrated data analysis.
