Comparative Genomics Shows Differences in the Electron Transport and Carbon Metabolic Pathways of <i>Mycobacterium africanum</i> relative to <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> and suggests an adaptation to low oxygen tension

2019-10-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The geographically restricted Mycobacterium africanum lineages (MAF) are primarily found in West Africa, where they account for a significant proportion of tuberculosis. Despite this phenomenon, little is known about the co-evolution of these ancient lineages with West Africans. MAF and M. tuberculosis sensu stricto lineages (MTB) differ in their clinical, in vitro and in vivo characteristics f...
