Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex




The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC or MTBC) is a genetically related group of Mycobacterium species that can cause tuberculosis in humans or other animals.


It includes:



  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis

  • Mycobacterium africanum


  • Mycobacterium orygis [1]

  • Mycobacterium bovis and the Bacillus Calmette–Guérin strain

  • Mycobacterium microti

  • Mycobacterium canetti

  • Mycobacterium caprae

  • Mycobacterium pinnipedii

  • Mycobacterium suricattae


  • Mycobacterium mungi[2]


In addition, two branches exist which have phylogenetic similarities but are not completely described: the dassie and oryx bacilli. Oryx bacilli has been recently reclassified into a separate subspecies, orygis. [3]
