Nomenclature

In order to harmonize the MIRU-VNTR nomenclature, a numerical code was established. The MLVA MtbC15-9 type is defined by combination of a type based on the 15 loci (MLVA MtbC15) of the discriminatory subset and a type based on the 9 auxiliary loci (MLVA MtbC9).

Single Query Batch Query Query Alleles (MtbC15-9) Query Alleles (MtbC15) Query Alleles (MtbC9)
To query a type, enter its code below: MLVA MtbC15-9: (e.g. 16-3). MLVA MtbC15: (e.g. 16). MLVA MtbC9: (e.g. 3).	Enter multiple MLVA MtbC15-9 codes below, each in a new line or separated by comma or semicolon:	Enter the copy numbers below: 154     424     577     580     802     960 1644     1955     2059     2163b     2165     2347 2401     2461     2531     2687     2996     3007 3171     3192     3690     4052     4156     4348 Enter MIRU-VNTR data in the following notation: Copy number: numerical 0-9, 10, 11, 12, ... or CDC notation: 0-9, a-w.
