Abstract excerpt
Resistance associated mutations have been reported to alter the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) isolates under drug pressure. However, there is little information on the growth characteristics of bedaquiline (BDQ) resistant isolates in the presence of BDQ. To further understand the role of rv0678, we aimed to study whether the presence of rv0678 variants in BDQ resistant isolates alters the killing...
