Novel genetic polymorphisms identified in the clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis PE_PGRS33 gene modulate cytokines expression and promotes survival in macrophages
Objective: PE_PGRS33 is a member of multi-gene family restricted to pathogenic Mycobacteria and their functions remain elusive. PE_PGRS33 is highly polymorphic in nature to evade host’s immune response. Therefore, we investigated PE_PGRS33 gene polymorphisms in clinical isolates and functional chara...
