MIRU-profiler: a rapid tool for determination of 24-loci MIRU-VNTR profiles from assembled genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Background Tuberculosis (TB) resulted in an estimated 1.7 million deaths in the year 2016. The disease is caused by the members of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, which includes Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis and other closely related TB causing organisms. In order to understand...
