Draft Genome Sequences of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Clinical Isolates from the Ural Region of Russia That Carry the pks15/1 Gene.


ABSTRACT: Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 15 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates of the Beijing-B0/W-148 sublineage that carry a 7-bp insertion within the pks15 gene, which leads to the synthesis of Pks15/1 fusion protein. Pks15/1 is involved in phenolglycolipid synthesis and biofilm formation, thus potentially contributing to the B0/W-148 lineage's enhanced virulence and drug resistance.
