Variable human minisatellite-like regions in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome.

Molecular microbiology - 1 May 2000

Supply P, Mazars E, Lesjean S, Vincent V, Gicquel B, Locht C

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units (MIRUs) are 40-100 bp DNA elements often found as tandem repeats and dispersed in intergenic regions of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex genomes. The M. tuberculosis H37Rv chromosome contains 41 MIRU loci. After polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequence analyses of these loci in 31 M. tuberculosis complex strains, 12 of them were found to display variations in...
