Article

A polymorphic region in Mycobacterium abscessus contains a novel insertion sequence element.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Oct 2002

Howard Susan T, Byrd Thomas F, Lyons C Richard

Abstract excerpt

A polymorphic region was discovered in the genetically uncharacterized opportunistic pathogen Mycobacterium abscessus. The region contains a novel 1.7 kb insertion sequence (IS) named ISMab1. ISMab1 contains two complete ORFs and one partial ORF located in segments with over 80% nucleotide identity to Mycobacterium avium IS1601 and IS999 and to previously unreported IS-like elements from Mycobacterium smegmatis....
