The implications of mutations in multiple genes associated with ethambutol resistance among multidrug-resistant tuberculosis isolates from China
Distinct individual mutations, as well as multiple concurrent mutations, within EMB resistance-associated genes, contributed to variable levels of EMB resistance. These results have broadened our understanding of the molecular characteristics of EMB resistance in China.
