Lineage-specific <i>tprK</i> diversification and <i>Treponema pallidum</i> transmission dynamics in Buenos Aires, Argentina

2026-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Syphilis rates are rising globally, with increases in congenital syphilis in South America particularly concerning. The characterization of contemporary South American Treponema pallidum (Tp) strains is crucial to syphilis vaccine development, yet few genomic epidemiology studies have focused on this region. Here, we performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) of Tp from Buenos Aires, Argentina,...
