Keywords Syphilis Treponemes; Multilocus Sequence Typing
Description We read, with interest, the recently published article “Increased discrimination of Treponema pallidum strains by subtyping with a 4-component system incorporating a mononucleotide tandem repeat in rspA” in Sexually Transmitted Diseases by Pillay et al. The authors have combined determination of the guanine mononucleotide repeat length in the rspA gene with enhanced Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) typing for molecular typing of syphilis treponemes.
