Extensively drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (XDR-TB) has been reported to the WHO by 100 countries, including Colombia. An estimated 9.0% of people with multidrug-resistant TB have XDR-TB. We report the genome sequence of a Beijing XDR-TB clinical isolate from Buenaventura, Colombia. The genome sequence is composed of 4,298,162 bp with 4,359 genes.

AbstractPeru has the highest burden of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in the Americas region. Since 1999, the annual number of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) Peruvian cases has been increasing, becoming a public health challenge. The objective of this study was to perform genomic characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains obtained from Peruvian patients with XDR-TB diagnosed from 2011 to 2015 in Peru. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was performed on 68 XDR-TB strains from different regions of Peru. 58 (85.3%) strains came from the most populated districts of Lima and Callao. Concerning the lineages, 62 (91.2%) strains belonged to the Euro-American Lineage, while the remaining 6 (8.8%) strains belonged to the East-Asian Lineage. Most strains (90%) had high-confidence resistance mutations according to pre-established WHO-confident grading system. Discordant results between microbiological and molecular methodologies were caused by mutations outside the hotspot regions analysed by commercial molecular assays (rpoB I491F and inhA S94A). Cluster analysis using a cut-off ≤ 10 SNPs revealed that only 23 (34%) strains evidenced recent transmission links. This study highlights the relevance and utility of WGS as a high-resolution approach to predict drug resistance, analyse transmission of strains between groups, and determine evolutionary patterns of circulating XDR-TB strains in the country.

Drug resistance (DR) remains a major challenge for tuberculosis (TB) control. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) provides the highest genetic resolution for genotypic drug-susceptibility tests (DST). We compared DST profiles of 60 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates which were drug resistant according to agar proportion tests (one poly DR-TB, 34 multidrug-resistant TB and 25 extensively drug-resistant TB). We additionally performed minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests using Sensititre MYCOTBI plates (MYCOTB) and a WGS-based DST. Agreement between WGS-based DST and MYCOTB was high for all drugs except ethambutol (65%) and ethionamide (62%). Isolates harboring the -15 c/t inhA promoter mutation had a significantly lower MIC for isoniazid than did isolates with the katG Ser315Thr mutation (p < 0.001). Similar patterns were seen for ethambutol (embB Gly406Asp vs. embB Met306Ile), streptomycin (gid Gly73Ala vs. rpsL Lys43Arg), moxifloxacin (gyrA Ala90Val vs. gyrA Asp94Gly) and rifabutin (rpoB Asp435Phe/Tyr/Val vs. rpoB Ser450Leu). For genotypic heteroresistance, isolates with lower proportion of mapped read tended to has lower MIC of anti-TB drugs than those with higher proportion. These results emphasize the high applicability of WGS for determination of DR-TB and the association of particular mutations with MIC levels.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of an extensively drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolate, 3485_MTB, from Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan. The genome sequence is composed of 4,836,003 bp. The genome will provide more data on the genetic variations occurring in local drug-resistant isolates.

Over the past decades, drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains have presented a significant challenge, with inadequate diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) cases. Here, we report the draft whole-genome sequence of drug-resistant M. tuberculosis strain S7, which was isolated from a patient from Tripura, India, who was diagnosed with pulmonary TB.
