Abstract excerpt
This chapter describes the isolation and characterization of spontaneous resistant mutants of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The overall objective of resistant mutant isolation is to determine the mode of action and/or cellular targets of new antimycobacterial agents. Whole-genome sequencing of resistant mutants can identify targets of antimycobacterial drugs and mechanisms of resistance, such as efflux, changes in...
