In vivo microevolution of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and transient emergence of atpE_Ala63Pro mutation during treatment in a pre-XDR TB patient

This letter describes microevolution of a pre-XDR MTB strain isolated from a pulmonary TB patient over an 18-month exposure to BDQ. MDR-TB therapies with BDQ require a functional background regimen to prevent emergence of additional resistance. https://bit.ly/3D05qT9
