Genome wide analyses reveal the role of mutator phenotypes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis drug resistance emergence
29 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial combination therapy is widely used to combat Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), yet resistance rates continue to rise. Mutator strains, with defects in DNA repair genes, drive resistance in other bacterial infections, but their role in Mtb remains unclear. Here, we study the contribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA Repair, Replication, and Recombination (3 R) genes to Mtb...
