Understanding the diversity of DNA methylation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

2020-05-30

Abstract excerpt

Although Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains exhibit genomic homology of >99%, there is considerable variation in the phenotype. The underlying mechanisms of phenotypic heterogeneity in Mtb are not well understood but epigenetic variation is thought to contribute. At present the methylome of Mtb has not been completely characterized. We completed methylomes of 18 Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) clinic...
