Whole genome sequences of <i>Treponema pallidum</i> subsp. <i>endemicum</i> isolated from Cuban patients: the non-clonal character of isolates suggests a persistent human infection rather than a single outbreak

2021-10-15

Abstract excerpt

Bejel (endemic syphilis) is a neglected non-venereal disease caused by Treponema pallidum subsp. endemicum (TEN). Although it is mostly present in hot, dry climates, a few cases have been found outside of these areas. The aim of this work was the sequencing and analysis of TEN isolates obtained from “syphilis patients” in Cuba, which is not considered an endemic area for bejel. Genomes were obtained by pool seg...
