Bedaquiline- and clofazimine- selected Mycobacterium tuberculosis mutants: further insights on resistance driven largely by Rv0678

Abstract Drug-resistant tuberculosis is a serious global health threat. Bedaquiline (BDQ) is a relatively new core drug, targeting the respiratory chain in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). While mutations in the BDQ target gene, atpE, are rare in clinical isolates, mutations in the Rv0678 gene, a t...
