The resurgence of the disease in many countries has produced a heightened awareness of the threat posed by mycobacterial infections. At the same time, there has been an explosion of knowledge of the fundamental properties of mycobacteria, most notably the determination of the complete genome sequence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This book provides an up-to-date account of these developments in the molecular biology and immunology of mycobacteria, coupled with allied advances of a more applied nature, such a 606 $aMycobacteria$xGenetics 606 $aMolecular biology 615 0$aMycobacteria$xGenetics. 615 0$aMolecular biology. 676 $a579.3/74 676 $a579.374 701 $aRatledge$b Colin$091994 701 $aDale$b Jeremy$0324172 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996198285303316 996 $aMycobacteria$92002592 997 $aUNISA
