Characterization of Novel Coding Sequences Specific toMycobacterium aviumsubsp.paratuberculosis: Implications for Diagnosis of Johne's Disease
1 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis is the causative agent of Johne's Disease, an economically important intestinal ailment of ruminants. Due to the considerable genetic and serologic cross-reactivity with closely related and ubiquitous members of the M. avium complex, a species-specific method for the serological diagnosis of Johne's disease is unavailable. Computational and PCR-based analysis of the...
