Mycobacterium tuberculosis pili (MTP), a putative biomarker for a tuberculosis diagnostic test
Novel biomarkers are urgently needed for point of care TB diagnostics. In this study, we investigated the potential of the pilin subunit protein encoded by the mtp gene as a diagnostic biomarker. BLAST analysis of the mtp gene on published genome databases, and amplicon sequencing were performed in...
