Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Two-component systems (TCSs) assume a pivotal function in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tuberculosis) growth. However, the exact regulatory mechanism of this system needs to be elucidated, and only a few studies have investigated the effect of gene mutations within TCSs on M.tuberculosis transmission. This research explored the relationship between TCSs gene mutation and the global transmission of...
