Genome-Wide Study of Drug Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Its Intra-Host Evolution during Treatment

It is proposed that the insertion within Rv3785, which was a GWAS hit, might affect cell wall biosynthesis and probably mediates a compensatory mechanism in response to treatment, and shed light on the mechanisms of MTB adaptation to chemotherapy and drug resistance formation.

Severe Clinical Outcomes of Tuberculosis in Kharkiv Region, Ukraine, Are Associated with Beijing Strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Among diverse MTB genotypes discovered in Ukraine, the Beijing genotype (MIRU-VNTR 42425) was significantly associated with risk factors for severe outcomes of disease in the study population, including TB/HIV co-infection and treatment failure.

Characterization of Large Deletion Mutants of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Selected for Isoniazid Resistance

Large genomic deletions (LGDs) (6 to 63 kbp) were observed in isoniazid-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis mutants derived from four M. tuberculosis strains. These LGDs had no growth defect in…

Beijing strains of M. tuberculosis were significantly associated with genotypic clustering, reflecting recent transmission, and younger age, but were not associated with drug resistance.

An Upstream Truncation of the furA-katG Operon Confers High-Level Isoniazid Resistance in a Mycobacterium tuberculosis Clinical Isolate with No Known Resistance-Associated Mutations

To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report showing that deletion of the upstream region preceding the furA-katG operon causes high-level INH resistance in a clinical isolate of M. tuberculosis.

Mutations in gidB Confer Low-Level Streptomycin Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

The causal role of gidB in conferring a low-level SM-resistant phenotype in M. tuberculosis is demonstrated by evaluating an isogenic ΔgidB mutant strain constructed from strain H37Rv, and the clinical implications of mutations in the gid B gene are examined.

Complete Genome Sequences of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains CCDC5079 and CCDC5080, Which Belong to the Beijing Family

Two closely related Beijing family isolates, one resistant to four first-line drugs and one sensitive to them, were completely sequenced and will serve as valuable references for further drug resistance site identification studies and could be of great importance for developing drugs targeting these sites.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Genes Associated with Isoniazid Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A variety of single nucleotide polymorphisms in multiple genes are found exclusively in INH-resistant clinical isolates, and these genes either are involved in mycolic acid biosynthesis or are overexpressed as a response to the buildup or cellular toxicity of INH.

Recent nosocomial transmission and genotypes of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Investigation of the proportion of tuberculosis cases, including MDR-TB cases, attributable to recent transmission and risk factors associated with clustering found MDR cases were more likely to be found in clusters than drug-susceptible cases.

Role of Large Sequence Polymorphisms (LSPs) in Generating Genomic Diversity among Clinical Isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the Utility of LSPs in Phylogenetic Analysis

Most LSPs occur in genomic regions that are prone to repeated insertion/deletion events and were responsible for an unexpectedly high degree of genomic variation in clinical M. tuberculosis.

Functional and evolutionary genomics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: insights from genomic deletions in 100 strains.

To better understand genome function and evolution in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the genomes of 100 epidemiologically well characterized clinical isolates were interrogated by DNA microarrays and sequencing and 224 genes were found to be partially or completely deleted.
