Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are reprogrammed from somatic cells and are regarded as promising sources for regenerative medicine and disease research. Recently, techniques for analyses of individual cells, such as single-cell RNA-Seq and mass cytometry, have been used to understand the stem cell reprogramming process in the mouse. However, the reprogramming process in hiPSCs remains poorly understood.

Background: Burkholderia pseudomallei is a facultative intracellular pathogen and the causative agent of melioidosis. A conserved type III secretion system (T3SS3) and type VI secretion system (T6SS1) are critical for intracellular survival and growth. The T3SS3 and T6SS1 genes are coordinately and hierarchically regulated by a TetR-type regulator, BspR.

Background: Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a potentially fatal disease endemic in Southeast Asia and Northern Australia. This Gram-negative pathogen possesses numerous virulence factors including three "injection type" type three secretion systems (T3SSs). B.
