Mycobacterium tuberculosis Central Asian Strain (CAS) lineage strains in Pakistan reveal lower diversity of MIRU loci than other strains
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) Central Asian Strain (CAS) lineage strains are predominant in South Asia. Mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units-variable number of tandem repeats (MIRU-VNTR) typing is an effective way of determining genetic diversity of strains. A maximum of 24 loci-based MIRU...
