Trends in Microbiology, 2018
In this infographic, the genetics, phylogeny, physiology, and pathogenesis mechanisms of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are shown. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the etiological agent of tuberculosis (TB), the leading cause of death due to a single infectious agent, claiming 1.7 million lives in 2016.

Mycobacterium malmoense: an underestimated nontuberculous mycobacterium
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2010We present a case report of Mycobacterium malmoense in a 53-year-old white man. The incidence of M. malmoense infections is a rare event compared with other nontuberculous mycobacteria, but it has increased since 1980, especially in northern Europe. Many patients have disposing underlying diseases. In most cases, it is a pulmonary infection.

Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2015The natural history of tuberculosis begins with the inhalation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis organisms; a period of bacterial replication and dissemination ensues, followed by immunologic containment of viable bacilli.

Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Infection
, 2018Phagocytosis of tubercle bacilli by antigen-presenting cells in human lung alveoli initiates a complex infection process by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and a potentially protective immune response by the host. M.

Pleiomorphism in Mycobacterium
2012Morphological variants in mycobacterial cultures under different growth conditions, including aging of the culture, have been shown to include fibrous aggregates, biofilms, coccoids, and spores. Here we discuss the diversity in shape and size changes demonstrated by bacterial cells with special reference to pleiomorphism observed in Mycobacterium spp ...

Mycobacterium marinum: the generalization and specialization of a pathogenic mycobacterium
Microbes and Infection, 2004Mycobacterium marinum is being used increasingly as a model for understanding pathogenic mycobacteria. However, recently discovered differences between M. marinum and M. tuberculosis suggest that adaptation to specialized niches is reflected in unique strategies of pathogenesis. This review emphasizes the areas in which studying M.

The GroES antigens of Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium paratuberculosis
Veterinary Microbiology, 1999The GroES antigen provokes a strong immune response in human beings with tuberculosis or leprosy. We cloned and sequenced the Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium paratuberculosis GroES genes. M. avium and M. paratuberculosis have identical GroES sequences which differ from other mycobacterial species. This supports the current formal designation of M.

Monoglycosyldiacylphenol-phthiocerol of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1988The structure of a minor glycolipid of M. tuberculosis (strain Canetti) is shown to be 2-O-methyl-alpha-L-rhamnosyldiacylphenol-phthiocerol. A similar compound with non-methylated rhamnose as sugar moiety was also detected. In the course of this work, the structure of mycoside B from Mycobacterium bovis was reexamined, and was shown to be identical to ...
