Comparative genomics for gene size differences between M. tuberculosis H37Rv and CDC1551. The data in this table provide an overview of the reasons for size differences observed between annotated PE and PPE genes from the two M. tuberculosis genome databases, indicating that variation in size due to frameshifts, insertions and deletions is largely associated with the PE_PGRS and PPE-MPTR subfamilies.
