Evolution of short sequence repeats in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Mar 2006

Arnold Cath, Thorne Nicola, Underwood Anthony, Baster Kathleen, Gharbia Saheer

Abstract excerpt

Whole genome comparison has revealed the presence of short sequence repeats (also called mycobacterial interspersed repeat units and variable number tandem repeat units) used for genotyping schemes. In this study, we have used deletion analysis, single nucleotide polymorphism data and spoligotype taken from published data from others to investigate the evolution of selected repeats that form the common...
