The genetic portrait of an outbreak strain.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

Unique events in the genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including deletions and IS6110 insertions, have been proposed to be responsible for the virulence phenotype of outbreak strains. Based on this premise, we determined ten IS6110 insertion sites in the genome of the M. tuberculosis CH strai...
