Whole-genome analysis of antibiotic resistance-associated genes in B. pseudomallei isolatesa
Mutations were amino acid changes due to single nucleotide polymorphism, deletion, and frameshift mutation observed in B. pseudomallei isolates with decreased antibiotic susceptibility compared to K96243A. A, primary isolate; E, relapse isolate; MLST, multilocus sequence type; WT, wild type; fs, frameshift mutation; del, deletion; S, susceptible. Boldface in antibiotic susceptibility indicates resistance (R), less susceptible (LS), or intermediate (I). The mutations colored in blue were also found in antibiotic-susceptible B. pseudomallei isolates. Those colored in green were known CAZ-R variants (20, 22). Novel mutations found in this study are colored in red.
