Genomic Analysis of Human-infecting <i>Leptospira borgpetersenii</i> isolates in Sri Lanka: expanded PF07598 gene family repertoire, less overall genome reduction than bovine isolates
2024-09-17
Abstract excerpt
Leptospira borgpetersenii commonly causes human leptospirosis, including severe disease. The first published analysis of L. borgpetersenii , performed on two strains of serovar Hardjo (L550 and JB197), concluded that the L. borgpetersenii genome is in the process of genome decay with functional consequences leading to a more obligately host-dependent life cycle. Yet whole genome analysis has only been carried ou...
