High flux isothermal assays on the pathogenic features of Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

As one of the most important pathogens, M. pneumoniae is a causative agent responsible for atypical and other respiratory tract infections, even its extra-pulmonary complications. This study aims to use the high and rapid flux sequencing assays on the M. pneumoniae and further bioinformatic analysis, for the investigation of their clinical features and pathogenic characteristics. The results in this study on the clinical features and pathogenic characteristics of M. pneumoniae may further aid in the control and surveillance and better understanding of this pathogen.
