The persistence and emergence of new multi-drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) strains continues to advance the devastating tuberculosis (TB) epidemic. Robust systems are needed to accurately and rapidly perform drug-resistance profilin...
During the systematic screening of bioactive compounds from our marine natural product library, crude extract of the marine-derived fungus strain MF029 exhibited moderate bioactivities against , S, methicillin-resistant , and bacillus Calmette-Guér...
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease and the leading cause of death globally. The rapidly emerging cases of drug resistance among pathogenic mycobacteria have been a global threat urging the need of new drug discovery and development. However, ...
BACKGROUND: Multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a significant global public health threat. Genotypic resistance prediction from Mtb DNA sequences offers an alternative to laboratory-based drug-susceptibility testing. User-friendly...
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and it has been one of the top 10 causes of death globally. Drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB), extensively resistant to the commonly used first-line drugs, has e...
The prevalence of infections by nontuberculous mycobacteria is increasing, having surpassed tuberculosis in the United States and much of the developed world. Nontuberculous mycobacteria occur naturally in the environment and are a significant proble...
Effective and timely antibiotic treatment depends on accurate and rapid in silico antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) predictions. Existing statistical rule-based Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) drug resistance prediction methods using bacterial genomic s...
