Outline of Final Research Achievements

By 2018, more than 10 strains of Bruli ulcer-causing bacteria have been analyzed for whole genome nucleic acids using next-generation sequencers (NGS). It was found that the isolates had regional differences, and similar species were solidified in each isolated region. Methylation status of 8 strains of bacteria causing Bruli ulcers was analyzed using NGS. It was suggested that the degree of methylation differed in the whole genome region between African and Asian strains. Although we have conducted infection experiments on mice with a unified background of African and Asian strains, average Nucleartide Identity shows that the pathogenicity is different. Considering the possibility that the degree of methylation may be involved in the 2020 fiscal year, the methylation of more strains was analyzed with NGS, and the differences between the African and Asian strain populations were clarified, so this result was scheduled to be presented collectively as a paper.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

アフリカ株とアジア株が異なることが示されつつあり、ブルーリ海洋に対する対策にも地域差を考慮する必要があることが示唆されつつあり、国際的疫学研究にもインパクトのある成果となりつつある。
