Tuberculosis Influenced the Human Genome Throughout human history, our species has come into contact with both harmless and infectious microbes that have changed us, like gut bacteria and retroviruses. But more recent infectious disease outbreaks have also left their mark on human biology. New research reported in the American Journal of Human Genetics has suggested that tuberculosis (TB) has had a variety of influences on human biology, including the genome. Present-day humans are the descendants of those who have survived many things: climate changes and big epidemics, including the Black Death, Spanish flu, and tuberculosis, noted senior study author Lluis Quintana-Murci of the Institut Pasteur in France. This work uses population genetics to dissect how natural selection has acted on our genomes.
