BATF2 and tuberculosis: We translated measurement of eight parsimonious TB transcriptomic signatures—Francisco225, Maertzdorf426 (DIAG4), Penn-Nicholson6 (RISK6)23, Suliman4 (RISK4)27, Roe128 (BATF2), Roe329, Sweeney330, and Thompson531 (RESPONSE5)—to a microfluidic RT-qPCR platform using TaqMan primer-probe assays for quantification of transcripts (Tables S1-6 in Supplementary Data 1).
