Mechanisms of fitness cost reduction for rifampicin-resistant strains with deletion or duplication mutations in rpoB
Rifampicin resistance (Rif(R)) is caused by mutations in rpoB, encoding the β-subunit of RNA polymerase. Rif(R) mutations generally incur a fitness cost and in resistant isolates are frequently accompanied by compensatory mutations in rpoA, rpoB or rpoC. Previous studies of fitness compensation focu...
