Whole genome sequences of Treponema pallidum subsp. endemicum isolated from Cuban patients: the non-clonal character of isolates suggests a persistent human infection rather than a single outbreak

E. Vrbova, A. A. Noda, L. Grillova, I. Rodriguez, A. Forsyth, J. Oppelt, D. Smajs

The paper sequences and analyzes four Treponema pallidum subsp. endemicum isolates from Cuba, finding genetic diversity that suggests persistent human infection rather than a single outbreak.

Sequence variation of rare outer membrane protein β-barrel domains in clinical strains provides insights into the evolution of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum, the syphilis spirochete.

S. Kumar, M. J. Caimano, A. Anand, A. Dey, K. L. Hawley, M. LeDoyt, C. La Vake, A. R. Cruz, L. G. Ramirez, L. Pastekova, I. Bezsonova, D. Smajs, J. C. Salazar, J. D. Radolf

The paper analyzes sequence variation in β-barrel domains of OMPs in TPA clinical strains, finding that genetic exchange and host selection pressures drive OMP diversity and inform vaccine strategies.
