- W1567008488 abstract "Genomic variability provides the basis for adaptation and evolution and constitutes a fascinating aspect of the metabolically and phylogenetically diverse microbial world. Variability in bacteria has been extensively studied both because it enables inferring evolutionary relationships and because it plays an important role in host-pathogen interactions. Microbiologists, who have long struggled with species classification, have gained a more recent appreciation of the level of genetic diversity in microorganisms that has led to new awareness of what may constitute a bacterial “species” (Doolittle & Zhaxybayeva, 2009). In the clinical setting, genomic variability can represent a significant barrier to treatment. Many pathogens can acquire mutations or foreign genetic material through horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in response to the selective pressure imposed by the host immune system and by chemotherapy (Hawkey & Jones, 2009, Sampson, 2011), resulting in strains that are difficult to eradicate in hospitals as well as during long-term infection. Understanding the extent of genomic variability and its effects on disease in the case of pathogens that display genetic homogeneity and low variability, as is the case for the causative agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is particularly fascinating. The success of M. tuberculosis is intimately tied to the infectious process and its interaction with the human host, which is believed to have resulted from a long process of co-evolution (Donoghue, 2009, Gutierrez et al., 2005). As a result, M. tuberculosis is capable of subverting the immune response and persisting as a latent form within an individual and for millennia within the human population." @default.
