Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis is the causative agent of Johne's disease, a chronic enteritis in ruminants. A gene homologous to that of 35-kDa antigen of Mycobacterium leprae was cloned and sequenced from Mycobacterium paratuberculosis. The database searches revealed 82.79% and 95.67% similarities of its nucleotide sequence, with those of immunodominant 35-kDa protein of M. leprae and M. avium, respectively.
副结核分枝杆菌是反刍动物慢性肠炎——约内氏病的病原体。从副结核分枝杆菌中克隆并测序了一个与麻风分枝杆菌35 kDa抗原基因同源的基因。数据库搜索显示，其核苷酸序列与麻风分枝杆菌和鸟分枝杆菌免疫显性35 kDa蛋白的核苷酸序列分别具有82.79%和95.67%的相似性。
