  • Title: Evaluation of Mycobacterium bovis double knockout mce2-phoP as candidate vaccine against bovine tuberculosis.
    Author: García E, Bianco MV, Gravisaco MJ, Rocha RV, Blanco FC, Bigi F.
    Journal: Tuberculosis (Edinb); 2015 Mar; 95(2):186-9. PubMed ID: 25620706.
    Abstract:
    In this study, a Mycobacterium bovis knockout strain in phoP-phoR and mce2 operons was tested as an antituberculosis experimental vaccine in animal models. The double mutant strain was significantly more attenuated than the wild type strain in inmunocompetent and inmunodeficient mice. Vaccination with the double mutant protected mice against challenge with a virulent M. bovis strain.
