A sister lineage of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex discovered in the African Great Lakes region

The human- and animal-adapted lineages of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) are thought to be evolved from a common progenitor in Africa. Here, the authors identify two MTBC strains isolated from patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, representing an as-yet-unknown lineage furth...

Sumario:The human- and animal-adapted lineages of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) are thought to be evolved from a common progenitor in Africa. Here, the authors identify two MTBC strains isolated from patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, representing an as-yet-unknown lineage further supporting an East African origin for the MTBC.
