Glycopeptidolipid Genotype Correlates With the Severity of Mycobacterium abscessus Lung Disease

Smooth and rough colony morphotypes of Mycobacterium abscessus are associated with virulence, but some isolates form both smooth and rough colonies, impeding successful morphotype identification. Reportedly, smooth/rough morphotypes are also related to the glycopeptidolipid (GPL) genotype. However,...
