Estimation of Full-Length TprK Diversity in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Treponema pallidum</named-content> subsp. <italic toggle="yes">pallidum</italic>

ABSTRACT Immune evasion and disease progression of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum are associated with sequence diversity in the hypervariable outer membrane protein TprK. Previous attempts to study variation within TprK have sequenced at depths insufficient to fully appreciate the hypervariable...
