Predicting rifampicin resistance in <i>M. tuberculosis</i> using machine learning informed by protein structural and chemical features
2024-08-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Rifampicin remains a key antibiotic in the treatment of tuberculosis. Despite advances in cataloguing resistance-associated variants (RAVs), novel and rare mutations in the relevent gene, rpoB , will be encountered in clinical samples, complicating the task of using genetics to predict whether a sample is resistant or not to rifampicin. We have trained a series of machine learning models with...
