Evidence from archaeological sites in the medieval English city of Winchester shows that English red squirrels once served as an important host for Mycobacterium leprae strains that caused leprosy in ... Nature: The upstream sequence of Mycobacterium leprae 18-kDa gene confers transcription repression activity in orientation-independent manner In order to understand the role of the upstream region of the Mycobacterium leprae 18-kDa gene on the gene regulation, the region was divided into two at the -50 position from the first start codon of ...
The upstream sequence of Mycobacterium leprae 18-kDa gene confers transcription repression activity in orientation-independent manner Nature: Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Activity of Mycobacterium leprae and Occurrence of γ-Amino Butyric Acid in Skin Lesions of Leprosy IN 1872 Hansen characterized Mycobacterium leprae as the causative agent in human leprosy. Hitherto, all attempts to cultivate this organism in vitro or to transmit it to experimental animals have met ...
