A synonymous mutation in MSMEG_4729 occurs at a high frequency in spontaneous D29-resistant mutants of Mycobacterium smegmatis

Buhari Yusuf, Yanan Ju, Biao Zhou…·Tianyu Zhang

This study identifies a synonymous mutation in MSMEG_4729 that frequently occurs in D29-resistant mutants of Mycobacterium smegmatis and links it to potential resistance mechanisms involving LOS biosynthesis and m6A modifications.

Likely role of promoter reconstitution in Mpr-mediated D29 resistance by Mycobacterium smegmatis

Buhari Yusuf, Yanan Ju, Biao Zhou…·Tianyu Zhang

This study identifies promoter reconstitution via IS6120 insertion upstream of mpr as the mechanism behind Mpr overexpression in D29-resistant M. smegmatis mutants.

Mutations in ClpC1 or ClpX subunit of the caseinolytic protease confer resistance to natural product ilamycins in mycobacteria

Yamin Gao, Cuiting Fang, Biao Zhou…·Tianyu Zhang

This study identifies two ilamycin analogs targeting mycobacterial Clp protease components and discovers mutations conferring resistance to these compounds.
