Detection of Mycobacterium angelicum in Human Urinary Tract, French Polynesia.

ABSTRACT: We definitively characterized Mycobacterium angelicum, an aquatic zoonotic opportunistic pathogen of the M. szulgai complex, using a polyphasic approach that included whole-genome sequencing. The sequence was obtained on the island of Tahiti, French Polynesia, from a urine specimen collected from a patient experiencing a urinary tract infection.
