Abstract Objective Infections due to nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is increasing globally and may present as drug-resistant tuberculosis (DRTB). In India, data on NTM prevalence and species diversity is limited. Present study was conducted to detect the prevalence and profile of NTM among patients suspected of DRTB using paraffin slide culture (PSC)and mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT) culture methods for isolation of NTM. Material and Method A total of 2,938 samples suspected of TB/DRTB were cultured on PSC and MGIT960. Species identification of mycobacterial isolate was done by sequencing of 16s ribosomal RNA gene. Result Among 2938 samples, 35 (1.19%) were found positive for NTM by PSC and 9 (0.30%) were found positive by MGIT. The diversity of NTM species was high (13 species). Out of 35 NTM isolates by PSC, maximum 34.29% (12) isolates were found to be Mycobacterium fortuitum, followed by 11.43% (4) Mycobacterium abscessus and Mycobacterium chelonae, and 42.85% (15) were other species viz. 8.57% (3) were Mycobacterium intracellulare and Mycobacterium kansasii, 5.71% (2) were Mycobacterium peregrinum, and 2.85% (1) were Mycobacterium flavescens, Mycobacterium farcinogenes, Mycobacterium moriokanese, Mycobacterium wolinskyi, Mycobacterium simiae, Mycobacterium goodii, and Mycobacterium terrae each. Coinfection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB) and NTM was found in 60% (21) samples. Conclusion Prevalence of NTM was low among multidrug resistant tuberculosis/TB suspected patients, similar to other studies done in India. PSC was found better than MGIT for the isolation of NTM, though poor separation of NTM and MTB on subculture may have led to false negativity in cases of coinfection. About 13 species were isolated; M. fortuitum was the most common of all. Since coinfection of NTM and TB can also occur, samples of patients suspected of NTM should be cultured on PSC even if positive for MTB.

Abstract Tuberculosis is one of the leading infectious diseases in the world and is responsible for more than 2 million deaths and 8 million new cases annually. Because of the slow growth rate of the causative agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis, isolation, identification, and drug susceptibility testing of this organism and other clinically important mycobacteria can take several weeks or longer. During the past several years, many molecular methods have been developed for direct detection, species identification, and drug susceptibility testing of mycobacteria. These methods can potentially reduce the diagnostic time from weeks to days. Currently, two nucleic acid amplification methods, the Enhanced Mycobacterium tuberculosis Direct Test (Gen-Probe) and the Amplicor Mycobacterium tuberculosis Test (Roche Diagnostic Systems), have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for direct detection of M. tuberculosis from clinical specimens. PCR-based sequencing has become commonly used to identify many mycobacterial species. DNA probes have been widely used for species determination of the most commonly encountered mycobacteria. High-density oligonucleotide arrays (DNA microarrays) also have been applied to simultaneous species identification and detection of mutations that confer rifampin resistance in mycobacteria.

Objective: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) often cause disease that is clinically indistinguishable from tuberculosis. Specific identification is important as treatment varies according to Mycobacterium species causing the infection. This study used multiplex PCR (mPCR) assay for rapid differentiation of mycobacterial growth indicator tube 960 system (MGIT) cultures as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) or NTM together with INNO LiPA Mycobacteria v2 assay (LiPA) and/or PCR sequencing of rDNA for species-specific identification of selected MTB and all NTM isolates in Kuwait. Materials and Methods: DNA was extracted from MGIT cultures (n = 1,033) grown from 664 pulmonary and 369 extrapulmonary specimens from 1,033 suspected tuberculosis patients. mPCR was performed to differentiate MTB from NTM. LiPA was performed and results were interpreted according to kit instructions. rDNA was amplified and sequenced by using panmycobacterial primers. Results: mPCR identified 979 isolates as MTB, 53 as NTM and 1 isolate as mixed culture. LiPA and/or PCR sequencing confirmed 112 of 979 selected isolates as MTB. Mixed culture contained M. tuberculosis and M. fortuitum. LiPA yielded 12 patterns and identified 10 species/species complexes among 47 NTM, M. kansasii + M. scrofulaceum in one culture and 5 isolates only at genus level. PCR sequencing yielded more specific identification for 22 isolates at the species/subspecies level. Conclusions: mPCR rapidly differentiated MTB from NTM. LiPA identified 44 of 52 NTM isolates at the species/species complex level and 2 mixed cultures. PCR sequencing yielded more specific identification at the species/subspecies level. Rapid differentiation as MTB or NTM by mPCR, followed by species-specific NTM identification by LiPA/PCR sequencing is suitable for the proper management of mycobacterial infections in Kuwait.

Context New molecular diagnostic tests are attractive because of the potential they hold for improving diagnostics in microbiology. The value of these tests, which is often assumed, should be investigated to determine the best use of these potentially powerful tools. Objective To investigate the usefulness of broad-range polymerase chain reaction (PCR), followed by sequencing, in mycobacterial infections. Design We reviewed the test performance of acid-fast bacilli (AFB) PCR and traditional diagnostic methods (histopathology, AFB smear, and culture). We assessed the diagnostic effect and cost of the unrestricted ordering of broad-range PCR for the detection and identification of mycobacteria in clinical specimens. Results The AFB PCR was less sensitive than culture and histopathology and was less specific than culture, AFB smear, and histopathology. During 18 months, $93 063 was spent on 183 patient specimens for broad-range PCR and DNA sequencing for mycobacteria to confirm one culture-proven Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection that was also known to be positive by AFB smear and histopathology. In this cohort, there was a false-negative AFB PCR for M tuberculosis and a false-positive AFB PCR for Mycobacterium lentiflavum. Conclusion Testing of AFB smear–negative specimens from patients without an inflammatory response supportive of a mycobacterial infection is costly and has not been proven to improve patient care. Traditional diagnostics (histopathology, AFB smear, and culture) should remain the primary methods for the detection of mycobacteria in clinical specimens.

The aim of this study was to improve the identification of Mycobacterium species in the context of a UK teaching hospital. Real-time PCR assays were established to enable the rapid differentiation between Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) complex and Mycobacterium species other than tuberculosis (MOTT), followed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing for the speciation of MOTT. Real-time PCR assays gave comparable results to those from the reference laboratory. The implementation of these PCR assays using an improved bead extraction method has enhanced the mycobacterial diagnostic service at the Royal Free Hospital by providing a rapid means of differentiating between MTB complex and MOTT, and would be simple to implement in similar laboratories. Sequence analysis successfully identified a range of Mycobacterium spp. representative of those encountered in the clinical setting of the authors, including Mycobacterium avium complex, Mycobacterium fortuitum group, Mycobacterium chelonae–Mycobacterium abscessus group, Mycobacterium xenopi and Mycobacterium gordonae. It provides a useful tool for the identification of MOTT when clinically indicated.

Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, a disease that affects dairy herds throughout the Brazilian territory, constituting a neglected zoonosis transmitted by raw milk and its derivatives. In this study, we evaluated the presence of M. bovis and other mycobacteria in Minas cheese obtained from open fairs in the city of São Paulo between 2012 and 2013. Samples (n = 133) were decontaminated using hexa-cetylpyridinium chloride and seeded on Stonebrink–Leslie medium. The isolates were submitted to molecular identification by TB Multiplex PCR targeting the 16S rRNA gene and amplicon nucleotide sequencing. From 16 cheese samples (12%), we obtained 26 putative colonies of Mycobacterium spp., none of which belonged to any of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium, or Mycobacterium intracellulare complexes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that sample sequences were grouped in a clade that includes only non-tuberculous mycobacteria with proximity to sequences obtained from Mycobacterium novocastrense (3 sequences), Mycobacterium holsaticum (1 sequence), andMycobacterium elephantis (2 sequences). Although no epidemiological evidence was found regarding the importance of oral transmission of mycobacteria in healthy people, their importance in the immunosuppressed population remains uncertain.

Background: Concern has been raised about DNA extraction from Mycobacterium tuberculosis due to its complex procedure. This study demonstrates a simple and fast DNA extraction method of mycobacterial genome to subsequent molecular investigation, such as Polymerization Chain Reaction (PCR) amplification, with species-specific primers and sequencing. Materials and Methods: Total DNA was isolated from M. tuberculosis cultured by using boil method. DNA was evaluated via measures of DNA quantity and quality (absorbance at 230, 260 and 280 nm), DNA integrity (electrophoresis). Molecular tests were tested namely PCR and sequencing. Conclusions: The quality of DNA obtained is acceptable for PCR and sequencing analysis. These findings demonstrate that the method used is inexpensive and suitable for minimum infrastructure facilities.

Tuberculosis has been an important disease throughout human history, shaping countless past populations. The archaeological study of the causative agents of tuberculosis, members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex (MTBC), is hindered by the non-diagnostic nature of tuberculosis-associated skeletal changes. As such, ancient DNA (aDNA) or palaeogenetic analyses have become an important tool for identifying tuberculosis in past populations. However, due to the age and variable preservation of aDNA, there are often issues with sporadic results and false negatives. The overall aim of the work presented here was to use different methods, including traditional target-specific PCR, to identify and detect tuberculosis aDNA in archaeological remains. The main objectives within this overarching aim were to first test a method called whole genome amplification (WGA), used to non-specifically amplify all the DNA within a sample, and its potential to improve the yield of aDNA from skeletal remains (Chapters 3 and 4). To determine the extent of its impact, WGA was used in a comparative context, where each archaeological sample analysed was separately subjected to two methods of MTBC detection - the traditional targeted PCR method and the same method assisted by the initial application of WGA. The results show that applying WGA before the traditional targeted PCR methodology to detect the presence of MTBC pathogens in skeletal remains is only useful and viable in some cases, likely depending on the age and preservation of the sample. The second objective was to use next generation sequencing to obtain more information on the aDNA composition of certain archaeological samples and answer questions beyond the scope of traditional target-specific PCR techniques (Chapter 5). Although most of the sequencing runs were variably unsuccessful, the composition of two samples, both known to probably contain tuberculosis aDNA, could be analysed. The samples both contained similar amounts of mycobacterial aDNA and varying amounts of both human and even potentially human intestinal flora DNA. Finally, the third objective was to determine if MTBC aDNA could be detected in a rib sample from Private William Braine of the lost Franklin Expedition using standard target-specific PCR (Chapter 6). In this case study, no evidence of tuberculosis ancient DNA was found. The work done through-out highlights the difficulties of ancient DNA research and, in Chapter 4, shows the importance of using more than a single sample to evaluate methods for application in palaeogenetic contexts.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) poses a global health catastrophe that has been compounded by the emergence of highly drug resistant Mtb strains. We used whole genome sequencing (WGS) to directly compare the accumulation of mutations in Mtb isolated from cynomolgus macaques with active, latent and early reactivation disease. Based on the distribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) observed, we calculated the mutation rates for these disease states. Our data suggest that during latency, Mtb acquires a similar number of chromosomal mutations as would be expected to emerge in a logarithmically growing culture over the same period of time despite reduced bacterial replication during latent infection. The pattern of polymorphisms suggests that the mutational burden in vivo is due to oxidative
DNA damage. We next sought to determine why some strains of Mtb are preferentially associated with high-level drug resistance. We demonstrate that Mtb strains from the East Asian lineage acquire drug resistances in vitro more quickly than Mtb strains from the Euro-American lineage. Their higher drug resistance rate in vitro reflects a higher basal mutation. Moreover, the in vitro mutation rate correlates well with the bacterial mutation rate in humans as determined by whole genome sequencing of clinical isolates. Finally, using an agent-based model, we show that the observed differences in mutation rate predict a significantly higher probability of multi-drug resistance in patients infected with East Asian lineage strains of Mtb. Lastly, we sought to determine the mechanisms Mtb uses to proofread nascently
polymerized DNA. Through fluctuation analysis of deletion mutants of two potential \(polIII\epsilon\) homologs, we demonstrate that neither is responsible for the maintenance of DNA replication fidelity. To explore the possibility that one of these homologs, Rv3711c, participates in an unknown redundant pathway, we used transposon capture and sequence (TraCS) to identify genes conditionally essential in an Rv3711c deletion mutant. Our analysis suggests that while Rv3711c does not participate in proofreading, it may act in an alternative novel DNA repair pathway. Taken together, our fluctuation analysis and TraCS data suggest that mycobacteria do not use canonical methods of proofreading to maintain genomic fidelity.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) remains a global challenge that has been worsened by the emergence of drug resistant strains of Mtb. We used publicly available Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and drug susceptibility (DST) data to develop “Resistance sniffer”, an online software program for the rapid prediction of lineage and Mtb drug resistance. Based on the distribution of polymorphisms in the genomes of Mtb, we calculated the power of association between the polymorphisms in different clades of Mtb and resistance to 13 anti-TB drugs. Our data suggests that the development of drug resistance in Mtb is a stepwise process that involves the accumulation of polymorphisms in the Mtb genome. We carefully curated the polymorphisms based on their association powers to create a diagnostic key that captures patterns of these polymorphisms that can be used to predict lineage and drug resistance in Mtb. This diagnosis key was incorporated into the Resistance Sniffer tool, an online software program that we developed for the rapid diagnosis of drug resistance in Mtb. The tool was tested using sequence data from the South Africa Medical Research Council (SA-MRC). Our data suggests that the majority of the strains in SA may have been brought by the arrival of European settlers while the more resistant strains may have been introduced in the region by Asian travellers later on.
We next sought to determine non-random associations between polymorphic sites in genomes of Mtb. Using the attributable risk (Ra) statistical methods, we distinguished between functional associations and associations that may have been due to genetic drift events for different Mtb clades. We then integrated the (Ra) data with drug susceptibility and annotation data to generate networks in Cytoscape 3.71. These networks were then used to infer evolutionary trajectories that drive the emergence and fixation of the drug resistant phenotype in different clades of Mtb.
We demonstrate that strains from the Lineage 1.2 are associated with less complex functional associations compared to the strains from other clades such as the Asian and Euro-American clades. Our data also shows that the predisposition of strains from the Asian clades to develop multi-drug resistance may be attributed to a complex network of functional interactions of mutations in genes that are involved in several aspects of Mtb physiology such as cell wall modelling, lipid metabolism, stress response and DNA repair.Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2019.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, la bactérie causant la tuberculose, est un pathogène d'importance majeure à l'échelle mondiale. Depuis sa découverte en 1882 par Robert Koch, de nombreuses études se sont penchées sur les caractéristiques de cette bactérie et des souches proches, connues sous le nom de complexe Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTBC). Dans le cadre de ce travail nous avons commencé par nous intéresser à l'espèce proche "Mycobacterium canettii", qui avait été identifiée au milieu du XXème siècle comme étant également capable de causer des cas de tuberculose chez l'Homme, tout en possédant des caractéristiques phénotypiques propres. Par le biais de l'étude de certains marqueurs phylogénétiques, nous avons pu établir que cette bactérie n'appartenait pas au MTBC au sens strict et pouvait donc être utilisée comme point d'ancrage dans le cadre de l'étude de la phylogénie et de l'émergence de ce dernier. C'est pourquoi nous avons choisi d'étudier la diversité de la collection de souches de "Mycobacterium canettii", qui proviennent toutes d'une même région du globe, la Corne de l'Afrique. L'étude de cette collection, construite au fil des ans par le Service de Santé des Armées (SSA), a permis de mettre en évidence l'émergence d'un groupe particulier de souches au sein de cette espèce, ainsi que d'obtenir des éléments permettant de préciser le positionnement du dernier ancêtre commun (MRCA) du MTBC. Du fait de l'origine géographique exclusive de ce taxon, nous avons ensuite décidé d'évaluer la diversité génétique des souches de Mycobacterium tuberculosis provenant de cette même région du globe. Cette seconde partie de l'étude, menée sur une collection à nouveau constituée par le SSA, a conduit à l'identification d'une nouvelle lignée au sein du MTBC, jusqu'alors inconnue. Cette découverte a un impact important sur la compréhension de l'émergence de Mycobacterium tuberculosis, car elle permet d'envisager un nouveau modèle d'apparition en interprétant cette lignée comme le descendant contemporain de l'écotype fondateur du MTBC. L'évolution de Mycobacterium tuberculosis peut ainsi être comprise suivant une progression liant "Mycobacterium canettii", pathogène occasionnel supposé environnemental, et cette nouvelle lignée. Une fois ce nouveau modèle proposé, nous avons tenté de le dater en extrapolant le taux de mutations observé lors d'évènements épidémiques contemporains, ce qui nous a permis de dater le MRCA du MTBC à environ 10 000 ans. Enfin nous avons mis en parallèle ces éléments concrets avec les connaissances paléo-ethnographiques actuelles concernant la Corne de l'Afrique pour proposer un modèle historiquement argumenté permettant d'expliquer la structuration phylogénétique actuelle du MTBCMycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, is a pathogen of world-wide impact. Since its discovery in 1882 by Robert Koch many studies have been focusing on the characteristics of this bacterium and of the most closely related strains known as the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC). In this work we started by studying the closest neighbor to the MTBC, the "Mycobacterium canettii" taxon, which is only found in one particular region of the world, the Horn of Africa. It t has been first identified in the middle of the XXth century as being able to cause tuberculosis in humans, but having at the same time peculiar phenotypic characteristics. Through the study of some phylogenetic markers we have been able to establish that this bacterium does not belong to the MTBC sensu stricto and can therefore be used as an outgroup in order to root the phylogeny to study the emergence of the MTBC. The next step was to study the genetic diversity of a collection of strains of "M. canettii",using the “next generation sequencing” (NGS) approach.. The analysis of this collection, built along the years by the French Army Health Service (SSA), has permitted to show the rapid emergence of a particular clone, as well as to get information enabling to precise the position of the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of the MTBC. Because of the restricted geographic location of this species, it was also decided to assess the genetic diversity of strains of M. tuberculosis coming from the same part of the globe. This second part of the study, performed on a collection of strains also gathered by the SSA, has lead to the identification of a new, previously unknown, lineage of the MTBC. This discovery has a profound impact on the comprehension of the emergence of M. tuberculosis, as it permits to develop a new model of appearance by interpreting this lineage as the founder ecotype of the MTBC. The evolution of M. tuberculosis can therefore by understood along a path linking "M. canettii", opportunistic pathogen supposedly environmental, and this new lineage. After this proposal of a new model, we tried to date it by extrapolating

In 2013 an estimated 9 million patients were diagnosed with tuberculosis across the globe, leading to 1.5 million deaths. In the UK, just under 8,000 cases were notified. Where resources allow, tuberculosis control is based on the identification of outbreaks, and the timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment of infected patients. However, current methods for identifying tuberculosis outbreaks are limited in their specificity, whilst the definitive diagnostic tests remain culture-dependent and can hence take weeks before producing a result. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) technology is now affordable, rapid and accurate, and in this thesis I explore its potential both for detecting transmission and for identifying the genetic variation underlying drug resistance. Understanding the degree of M. tuberculosis genetic diversity within and between epidemiologically related individuals is a prerequisite to using WGS to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis transmission. In chapter 3 I outline how this diversity is rarely greater than 5 nucleotide variants and also describe how the pattern of genetic diversity within an outbreak relates to the epidemiologically recognised transmission patterns. In chapter 4 I apply the findings from chapter 3 to all tuberculosis cases in Oxfordshire over a 6-year period to show that although most patients with tuberculosis were born in a high-incidence country, the odds of transmission among UK-born patients are in fact greater. These findings have contributed to the decision by Public Health England to invest in the routine whole-genome sequencing of M. tuberculosis from 2015. In chapter 5 I explore whether the potential utility of future sequence data can be increased by also predicting phenotypic drug susceptibility. I therefore devise an algorithm to characterise relevant genetic variation associated with phenotypic drug resistance or susceptibility. I conclude that WGS has a significant contribution to make towards improving patient outcomes and decreasing onward transmission of disease.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhDMycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, is estimated to infect approximately one-third of the world’s population and is responsible for around 2 million deaths per year. The disease is endemic in South Africa which has one of the world’s highest tuberculosis incidence and death rates. The M. tuberculosis Beijing genotype are characterised by having an enhanced virulence capability over other M. tuberculosis strains and are the predominant strain observed in the Western Cape of South Africa. DNA methylation is a largely untapped area of research in M.tuberculosis and has been poorly described in the literature especially given its connection to virulence despite it being well characterised along with its role in virulence in other pathogenic bacteria such as E.coli. The overall aim was to characterise a global DNA methylation profile for two M. tuberculosis Beijing strains, hyper-virulent and hypo-virulent, using single molecule real time sequencing data technology. Moreover, to determine if adenine methylation in promoter regions has a possible functional role. This study identified and characterised the DNA methylation profile at the single nucleotide resolution in these strains using Pacific Biosciences single molecule real time sequencing data. A computational approach was used to discern DNA methylation patterns between the hyper and hypo-virulent strains with a view of understanding virulence in the hyper-virulent strain. Methylated motifs, which belong to known Restriction Modification (RM) systems of the H37Rv referencegenome were also identified. N6-methyladenine (m6A) and N4-methlycytosine (m4C) loci were identified in both strains. m6A were idenitified in both strains occuring within the following sequence motifs CACGCAG (Type II RM system), GATNNNNRTAC/GTAYNNNNATC (Type I RM system), while the CTGGAGGA motif was found to be uniquley methylated in the hyper-virulentstrain.Interestingly, the CACGCAG motif was significantly methylated (p = 9.9 x10 -63) at a higher proportion in intergenic regions (~70%) as opposed to genic regions in both the hyper-virulent and hypo-virulent strains suggesting a role in gene regulation. There appeared to be a higher proportion of m6A occuring in intergenic regions compared to within genes for hyper-virulent (61%) and hypo-virulent (62%) strains. The genic proportion revealed that 35% of total m6A occurred uniquely within genes for the hyper-virulent strain while 27.9% for uniquely methylated genes in hypo-virulent strain.

A tuberculose é uma doença infectocontagiosa causada por bactérias do complexo Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTBC) que afeta humanos e/ou animais. Membros desse complexo evoluíram clonalmente e possuem grande similaridade genômica, diferenciando-se por polimorfismos de nucleotídeo único (SNPs) e regiões de diferença (RDs). Dentre os patógenos da tuberculose em animais, Mycobacterium bovis, causador da tuberculose bovina, é o membro do MTBC de maior importância global. Desta maneira, o presente estudo tem por objetivo o sequenciamento, a anotação e a análise da estirpe brasileira SP38 de M. bovis, seguido da genômica comparativa desse com outros genomas de M. bovis depositados no GenBank. Mycobacterium bovis SP38 apresenta um genoma tradicional de micobactéria tuberculosa, sendo esse único, circular com 4.347.646 pb, alto conteúdo de GC (65,6%) e 4.216 genes, incluindo 154 pseudogenes, 3 genes de rRNA (RNA ribossomal), 45 de tRNA (RNA transportador), 2 de ncRNA (RNA não codificante), 1 tmRNA (RNA transferência-mensageiro) e 4.011 sequências de DNA codificante (CDSs) (NZ_CP015773.1). Dentre as CDSs, a maioria (2.805 - 69,93%) foi anotado com função e 1.206 (30,07%) como hipotéticos. Para a genômica comparativa, os 31 genomas completos ou em drafts de M. bovis depositados no GenBank, 32 genomas de Mycobacterium bovis BCG e 23 genomas de Mycobacterium tuberculosis foram selecionados. Análises in silico dos padrões de RD resultaram na exclusão de três genomas anotados equivocadamente como M. bovis virulentos. A análise de genes ortólogos sugere que M. bovis está sob processo de decay genômico. A quantificação de sítios polimórficos indica uma maior variabilidade genética em números totais (8.335 em M. tuberculosis, 3.448 em M. bovis virulentos, e 1.088 em M. bovis BCGs) e comparações par-a-par (p ≤0,05) de M. tuberculosis em relação a M. bovis virulentos e BCGs, indicando uma maior pressão evolutiva sob M. tuberculosis, contrastando com o fato de que M. bovis é capaz de infectar um maior número de espécies hospedeiras que M. tuberculosis. A maioria desses sítios polimórficos estão localizados em CDSs hipotéticos (31,7% - 51,3%), sendo associados a família gênica PE/PPE, e apresentam uma proporção de mutações não sinônimas crescentes pela ordem M. bovis BCG, M. bovis virulentos e M. tuberculosis (48,90%, 51,92% e 59,52%, respectivamente). Essa menor proporção de mutações não sinônimas e a categorização funcional dissimilar entre CDSs contendo sítios polimórficos, indica que M. bovis BCG está sujeito a diferentes pressões seletivas quando comparado a M. bovis virulentos e M. tuberculosis. Por fim, a análise filogenética baseada em sítios polimórficos indica agrupamentos filogenéticos de M. bovis suportados pela classificação dos Complexos Clonais (CCs) e não por hospedeiros de origem dos isolados, confirmando que sítios polimórficos podem ser utilizados para classificação filogenética de linhagens genéticas desta espécie bacteriana. Além do mais, 2/28 (7,14%) genomas de M. bovis não puderam ser classificados nos CCs atualmente descritos, sugerindo a existência de complexos ainda não determinados. Este estudo representa o primeiro genoma de uma estirpe nacional de M. bovis a ser completamente sequenciado e a primeira análise de genômica comparativa de genomas desta espécie bacteriana.Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria of the Mycobacterium tuberculosisComplex (MTBC) that affects human beings and/or animals. Members of this complex clonally evolved and have high genomic similarity, differentiated by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and regions of difference (RDs). Among the animal tuberculosis pathogens, Mycobacterium bovis, the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, is the MTBC member of greatest global importance. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to sequence, assemble and annotate the genome of the Brazilian strain SP38 of M. bovis, followed by the comparative genomics with other M. bovis genomes available in GenBank. Mycobacterium bovis SP38 has a traditional mycobacteria genome. It has a single and circular chromosome with 4,347,646 bp, high GC content (65.6%), and 4,216 genes, including 154 pseudogenes, 3 rRNA genes (ribosomal RNA), 45 tRNA (transfer RNA), 2 ncRNA (non-coding RNA), 1 tmRNA (transfer-messenger RNA), and 4,011 coding DNA sequences (CDSs) (NZ_CP015773.1). The majority of CDSs (2,805 - 69,93%) was annotated with function and 1,206 (30,07%) are hypothetical. For the comparative genomics analyses, the 31 genomes (complete and drafts) of M. bovis available in GenBank, 32 Mycobacterium bovis BCG and, 23 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were chosen. In silico analysis of the RDs patterns resulted in the exclusion of three genomes, mistakenly annotated as virulent M. bovis. Orthologous gene analysis suggests that strains of M. bovis are under genomic decay. The quantification of polymorphic sites indicates the greater variability in absolute numbers (8,335 in M. tuberculosis, 3,448 in virulent M. bovis, and 1,088 in M. bovis BCG) and in pairwise comparisons (p≤0,05) of M. tuberculosis compared to virulent M. bovis and M. bovis BCG, suggesting that M. tuberculosis is under high evolutionary pressure. This is in contrast to the fact that M. bovis is capable of infecting a higher number of host species than M. tuberculosis. Most of these polymorphic sites are located in hypothetical CDSs (31.7% - 52.3%), being associated with PE/PPE family, and demonstrating a nonsynonymous mutations proportion of the following increasing order: M. bovis BCG, virulent M. bovis and M. tuberculosis (48.90%, 51.92% and 59.52%, respectively). This lower proportion of nonsynonymous mutations and the dissimilar functional categorization of CDSs with polymorphic sites indicates that M. bovis BCG is subjected to different selective pressure when compared to virulent M. bovis and M. tuberculosis. Finally, the phylogenetic analysis based on polymorphic sites indicates that the phylogenetic grouping of M. bovis is supported by Clonal Complexes (CCs), and not by the host of M. bovis isolates, confirming that polymorphic sites can be used for phylogenetic classification of genetic lineages of this bacterial species. Furthermore, 2/28 (7.14%) genomes of M. bovis could not be classified in the currently described CCs, suggesting the existence of complexes yet to be determined. This study represents the first genome of a Brazilian strain of M. bovis to be completely sequenced and the first comparative genomic analysis of the genomes of this bacterial species.

Although Poland is officially tuberculosis (TB) free, meaning that less than 0.1% of her cattle herd is TB-positive, the problem of bovine TB in Poland may be re-emerging: its presence has recently been confirmed in domestic and companion animals, wildlife such as the European bison, and even humans. The aim of this chapter was to review all reports of bovine TB in Poland described to date, with particular emphasis on molecular studies, and determine further research directions. These studies include a range of molecular methods for diagnosis, including genotyping, spoligotyping and MIRU- VNTR; such methods successfully identifies a tuberculosis-positive European bison as the source of wild boar infection in the Bieszczady Mountains based on its spoligotype. This chapter argues that identified trains should be better archived, as such records would allow detailed epidemiological investigations and shed greater light on the activity of Mycobacterium spp. The current epidemiological situation in Poland highlights the need for further studies to determine epidemiological links and confirm possible routes of transmission based on whole genome sequencing; this need is accentuated by the zoonotic potential of such infections and the endangered species at risk.
