Journal ArticleDOI
The roles of the nitrate reductase NarGHJI, the nitrite reductase NirBD and the response regulator GlnR in nitrate assimilation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

TL;DR: It is concluded that NarGHJI and NirBD of M. tuberculosis mediate the assimilatory reduction of nitrate and nitrite, respectively, and that GlnR acts as a transcriptional activator of nirBD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid-Cycle PCR and Fluorimetry for Detection of Mycobacteria
Jacqueline Lachnik,Birgit Ackermann,Antje Bohrssen,Silvia Maass,Catharina Diephaus,Axel Puncken,Marion Stermann,Franz-Christoph Bange +7 more
TL;DR: This LightCycler PCR amplification and product detection by fluorescence resonance energy transfer probes system is the fastest available method for identification and differentiation of mycobacteria from culture-positive specimens and offers an excellent alternative to previously established nucleic acid amplification-based techniques for the diagnosticMycobacterial laboratory.
