Therefore, genome structural annotation or the identification and demarcation of boundaries of functional elements in a genome (e.g., genes, non-coding RNAs, proteins, and regulatory elements) are critical elements in infectious disease systems biology. Whole genome transcriptome studies (such as whole genome tiling arrays [13, 14, 15] and high throughput sequencing [16, 17] ) are complementary experimental approaches for bacterial genome annotation and can identify ''novel'' genes, gene boundaries, regulatory regions, intergenic regions, and operon structures. We compared the RNA-Seq based transcriptome map with the available genome annotation to identify expressed, novel, and intergenic regions in the genome. The single nucleotide resolution map helped uncover the structure and complexity of this pathogen's transcriptome and led to the identification of novel, small RNAs and protein coding genes as well as gene co-expression. ./cache/cord-000556-uu1oz2ei.txt ./txt/cord-000556-uu1oz2ei.txt
