Phylogenomic and genomic analysis reveals unique and shared genetic signatures of Mycobacterium kansasii complex species
2024-02-16
Abstract excerpt
Species belonging to the Mycobacterium kansasii complex (MKC) are frequently isolated from humans and the environment and can cause serious diseases. The most common MKC infections are caused by the species M. kansasii (stricto sensu), leading to tuberculosis-like disease. However, a broad spectrum of virulence, antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity of these non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are observed acr...
