Tuberculosis, caused by , is a severe and persistent global public health issue, particularly exacerbated by the emergence of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant strains. This study employed pan-genomic approaches to analyze different strains with various resistance profiles, examining the diversity of bacterial genetic evolution in relation to mutations in resistance-related genes. The findings indicate that resistance-related genes are mostly core genes (94%), with a preference for base mutations closely associated with nonsynonymous mutations at resistance sites. Interestingly, while the majority of drugs induce positive selection in target genes, the tlyA gene under the influence of amikacin (AMI) undergoes passive selection. Cluster analysis of target genes suggests consistency between SNP clusters and drug-resistant clusters, revealing a strong correlation between bacterial evolutionary branches and resistance profiles. Consequently, based on pan-genome evolutionary characteristics, we identified the drug-resistant mutation pattern (DRMP) that can serve as a molecular fingerprint and indicator for drug sensitivity, aiding in the assessment and guidance of drug selection for treating different strains and the formulation of individualized treatment plans. This research not only enhances our understanding of the mechanisms of drug resistance in but also offers new perspectives for the development of new drugs, which is crucial for global tuberculosis control.
由[未提及具体病原体]引起的结核病是一个严重且持久的全球公共卫生问题,尤其是多重耐药和广泛耐药菌株的出现使其进一步恶化。本研究采用泛基因组方法分析具有不同耐药谱的不同菌株,研究与耐药相关基因突变相关的细菌遗传进化多样性。研究结果表明,耐药相关基因大多是核心基因(94%),倾向于在耐药位点发生与非同义突变密切相关的碱基突变。有趣的是,虽然大多数药物在靶基因中诱导正选择,但在阿米卡星(AMI)影响下的tlyA基因经历被动选择。靶基因的聚类分析表明单核苷酸多态性(SNP)簇与耐药簇之间具有一致性,揭示了细菌进化分支与耐药谱之间的强相关性。因此,基于泛基因组进化特征,我们确定了耐药突变模式(DRMP),它可作为药物敏感性的分子指纹和指标,有助于评估和指导治疗不同菌株的药物选择以及制定个体化治疗方案。这项研究不仅增进了我们对[未提及具体病原体]耐药机制的理解,还为新药研发提供了新的视角,这对全球结核病控制至关重要。
