Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We found a peculiar genotype, named V02, accounted for 12% of analyzed MDR-Mtb and consisted of only MDR-Mtb from genotyping analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Since the genotype could be considered spreading MDR-Mtb in widely, we identified single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of 15 Mtb isolates belonging V02 genotype by genome wide mapping using Illumina-based short reads. By comparison between the 15 Mtb isolates and outgroup strains, 113 nonsynonymous SNVs were identified as specific to V02 isolates. Four genes with V02 specific SNPs concerned with the biological process of virulence of Mtb. Of 4 genes concerning with virulence, only pknI, reported to regulate the virulence of Mtb, Therefore, the mutation in pknI gene of Mtb belonging V02 genotype might contribute to the high spread of this genotype.
