Abstract

ABSTRACT The esat-6 and cfp-10 genes are essential for virulence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis . Among nontuberculous mycobacteria, we found these genes only in M. kansasii , M. szulgai , M. marinum , and M. riyadhense , with unique sequences. This adds a phylogenetic and taxonomical characteristic and may represent a virulence factor for nontuberculous mycobacteria.
