The macrophage-induced gene mig as a marker for clinical pathogenicity and in vitro virulence of Mycobacterium avium complex strains.

M Meyer1, P W von Grünberg, T Knoop, P Hartmann, G Plum.   

Abstract

The capacity of 20 Mycobacterium avium complex isolates to multiply intracellularly in human monocyte-derived macrophages was assessed and correlated to the clinical relevance of each isolate and its reactivity with several candidate genetic virulence markers. The strongest correlation with a virulence phenotype was found for a conserved coding sequence of the macrophage-induced gene mig identified by a specific mig restriction fragment length polymorphism type.
