Molecular evolution of the tprC, D, I, K, G, and J genes in the pathogenic genus Treponema.

Molecular evolution of the tprC, D, I, K, G, and J genes in the pathogenic genus Treponema.

We investigated the evolution of 6 genes from the Treponema pallidum repeat (tpr) gene family, which encode potential virulence factors and are assumed to have evolved through gene duplication and gene conversion events. The 6 loci (tprC, D, G, J, I, and K) were sequenced and analyzed in several mem...
