Research Profile

Section Affiliation: Infections and Immunity

Research Interest:

Epigenetic mechanisms regulate key host immune responses during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. However, changes in genome-wide chromatin accessibility in Mtb-infected macrophages remains unknown. Using combinatorial chromatin accessibility (ATAC-seq) and transcriptomics (RNA-seq) profiling, we demonstrate that Mtb infection induces global chromatin remodeling consistent with changes in gene expression signatures.
