Characterization of a clinical Clostridioides difficile isolate with markedly reduced fidaxomicin susceptibility and a V1143D mutation in rpoB
27 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
Objectives: The identification and characterization of clinical Clostridioides difficile isolates with reduced fidaxomicin susceptibility. Methods: Agar dilution assays were used to determine fidaxomicin MICs. Genome sequence data were obtained by single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing in addition to amplicon sequencing of rpoB and rpoC alleles. Allelic exchange was used to introduce the identified mutation...
