A point mutation in cycA partially contributes to the D-cycloserine resistance trait of Mycobacterium bovis BCG vaccine strains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In mycobacteria, CycA a D-serine, L- and D-alanine, and glycine transporter also functions in the uptake of D-cycloserine, an important second-line anti-tubercular drug. A single nucleotide polymorphism identified in the cycA gene of BCG was hypothesized

Mycobacterium bovis Pulmonary Tuberculosis, Algeria [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
We analyzed 98 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates collected in 2 regions of Algeria in 2015-2018 from 93 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. We identified 93/98 isolates as M. tuberculosis lineage 4 and 1 isolate as M. tuberculosis lineage 2 (Beijing). We confirmed 4 isolates as M. bovis by whole-genome sequencing.
