Rare alternative second line injectable drug resistance markers identified by gene-wise genome wide association in <i>M. tuberculosis</i> with unexplained resistance
2021-11-24
Abstract excerpt
Point mutations in the rrs gene and eis promoter are known to confer resistance to second-line injectable drugs (SLIDs) amikacin (AMK), capreomycin (CAP), and kanamycin (KAN). While mutations in these canonical genes confer a majority of SLID-resistance, alternative mechanisms of resistance are not uncommon and threaten effective treatment decisions when using conventional molecular diagnostics. In total, 1184 c...
