Comparative genome analysis of <i>Corynebacterium ulcerans</i> Japanese isolates revealed domestically and globally diverse geographical distribution of the organism of different types

2026-04-08

Abstract excerpt

Corynebacterium ulcerans is a zoonotic pathogen causing infections in humans that are clinically indistinguishable from those of Corynebacterium diphtheriae . In many developed countries, companion animals such as dogs and cats, are the predominant sources of infection by C. ulcerans, as is the case in Japan. To date, we have collected 106 Japanese clinical and domestic animal isolates of C. ulcerans and a rece...
