Te DNA o te Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

Ko te Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Tubercle bacillus, TB) he momo huakita aerobic obligate me te tae waikawa-tere pai. He pili kei runga i te TB engari kāore he flagellum. Ahakoa he microcapsules te TB engari kāore e hanga spore. Kāore he waikawa teichoic o ngā huakita karamu-pai, he lipopolysaccharide rānei o ngā huakita karamu-kino i roto i te pakitara pūtau o te TB. Ko te Mycobacterium tuberculosis e pāngia ana e te tangata ka wehea whānuitia ki te momo tangata, te momo kau, me te momo Āwherika. Ko te pāngia o te TB ka pā pea ki te mumura i puta mai i te tipu haere o ngā huakita i roto i ngā pūtau kiko, te paitini o ngā wāhanga huakita me ngā metabolites, me te kino o te ārai mate ki ngā wāhanga huakita. Ko ngā matū pāwera e pā ana ki ngā capsules, lipids me ngā pūmua. Ka taea e te Mycobacterium tuberculosis te whakaeke i te taupori ngoikore mā te ara manawa, te ara nakunaku, te kino kiri rānei, ka puta te mate kohi i roto i ngā momo kiko me ngā whekau, ko te mate kohi i puta mai i te ara manawa te mea tino nui. Ka puta te nuinga o te wā i roto i ngā tamariki, me ngā tohu pēnei i te kirika iti, te werawera pō, me te iti o te hemoptysis. Ko ngā mate tuarua ka kitea nuitia ko te kirika iti, te werawera pō, te hemoptysis me ētahi atu tohu; te tīmatanga roa, me ētahi whakaekenga ohorere. Ko te mate kohi tētahi o ngā tino take mate tekau o te ao. I te tau 2018, tata ki te 10 miriona tāngata o te ao i pangia e te Mycobacterium tuberculosis, tata ki te 1.6 miriona tāngata i mate. He whenua nui a Haina mō te mate kohi, ā, ko tōna reiti mate ko te tuarua o te ao.
