SOME FEATURES OF GENOME STRUCTURE AND EVOLUTION OF MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS

Abstract. Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex includes both human pathogens (M. tuberculosis, M. africanum and M. canettii), rodent paghogens (M. microti), as well as Mycobacterium bovis with wide range of hosts and related M. caprae and M. pinnipedii. In spite of phenotypic and host differences thes...
