A promoter mutation causes differential nitrate reductase activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 2004

Stermann Marion, Sedlacek Ludwig, Maass Silvia, Bange Franz-Christoph

Abstract excerpt

The recent publication of the genome sequence of Mycobacterium bovis showed >99.95% identity to M. tuberculosis. No genes unique to M. bovis were found. Instead numerous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified. This has led to the hypothesis that differential gene expression due to SNPs might explain the differences between the human and bovine tubercle bacilli. One phenotypic distinction between...
