Around 1,600 years ago, a 50-year-old man died in what is now northwestern Germany. Researchers discovered DNA from Mycobacterium leprae, the bacterium responsible for leprosy, a strain never previously identified in Central or Northern Europe, in one of his teeth and a foot bone.
'Very rare' strain of leprosy found in man's 1,600-year-old burial in Germany
A high-status burial surprised archaeologists when they discovered leprosy in a man's bones from the fifth century.

A man buried in an oak boat at Fallward, northern Germany, in the second quarter of the 5th century CE carried Mycobacterium leprae in his heel and a molar. His skeleton shows no leprosy lesions at all.

Differential formation of nitrate-responsive mycobacterial intracytoplasmic membranes during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
Differential formation of nitrate-responsive mycobacterial intracytoplasmic membranes during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
Intracytoplasmic membranes (ICMs) form in environmental bacteria. Keck et al. describe Mycobacterial Intracytoplasmic Membranes (MIMs) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis using cryo-tomography. MIM formation depends on ambient nitrate and correlates with innate immune response repression.
