IS6110-derived fusion transcripts in clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Genomic and Transcriptomic evidence for genome plasticity

2026-07-23

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background</bold> : <bold/> The Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) genome is considered stable, yet it carries transposases, redundant and repetitive sequences, integrases, and prophage remnants that can drive intragenomic recombination and generate fusion transcripts. This study sought signatures of distant-gene fusion transcripts in RNA-seq data from clinical Mtb isolates. <...
