Genotyping of Mycobacterium leprae on the basis of the polymorphism of TTC repeats for analysis of leprosy transmission.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Feb 2004

Matsuoka Masanori, Zhang Liangfen, Budiawan Teky, Saeki Keisuke, Izumi Shinzo

Abstract excerpt

The polymorphism of TTC repeats in Mycobacterium leprae was examined using the bacilli obtained from residents in villages at North Maluku where M. leprae infections are highly endemic (as well as from patients at North Sulawesi of Indonesia) to elucidate the possible mode of leprosy transmission...
