Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) genomes can predict multidrug resistance (MDR) but not all phenotype-genotype correlations can be explained. We investigated SNVs in efflux pumps (EPs) in the context of M. tuberculosis drug resistance. METHODS: We analysed 2221 M. tuberculosis genomes from 1432 susceptible and 200 MDR, 172 pre-extensively drug...
