Article Synopsis
- * Researchers used whole-genome sequencing to identify genetic markers that confer resistance to clarithromycin, an antibiotic used for treating anthrax, by isolating resistant mutants derived from a non-infectious strain.
- * They discovered specific genetic mutations in the L22 ribosomal protein that were linked to resistance, highlighting the importance of rapid sequencing for understanding and predicting antimicrobial resistance in anthrax.
