Genome sequencing of Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis from a child suffering from lymphadenitis in Germany. Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis MAH 2721

Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) causes lung infections in immunocompromised hosts and HIV patients. MAH infections also manifest in the form lymphadenitis in children. Two genomes from clinical MAH are already available in the database. These genomes are MAH strains isolated from HIV positive and HIV negative clinical isolates. The aim of this submission is to introduce an MAH strain from a child suffering from lymphadenitis.
