Multilocus variable-number tandem repeat typing of Mycobacterium ulcerans.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Apr 2005

Abstract excerpt

The apparent genetic homogeneity of Mycobacterium ulcerans contributes to the poorly understood epidemiology of M. ulcerans infection. Here, we report the identification of variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) sequences as novel polymorphic elements in the genome of this species. A total of 19 potential VNTR loci identified in the closely related M. marinum genome sequence were screened in a collection of 23 M....
