Genotyping of <i>Orientia tsutsugamushi</i> circulating in and around Vellore (South India) using TSA 56 gene
2023-01-02
Abstract excerpt
The immunodominant TSA 56 gene of Orientia tsutsugamushi , (scrub typhus agent) has four variable regions (VD-I to VD-IV) making it useful for genotyping. As of date the genotyping data from India is based on partial 56kDa gene sequence analysis. The complete TSA 56 gene sequence is important for knowing the circulating strains and for designing region specific diagnostics and vaccines. This study was undertaken...
