Fitness Cost and Compensatory Evolution in Levofloxacin-Resistant Mycobacterium aurum.

Abstract

We isolated spontaneous levofloxacin-resistant strains of Mycobacterium aurum to study the fitness cost and compensatory evolution of fluoroquinolone resistance in mycobacteria. Five of six mutant strains with substantial growth defects showed restored fitness after being serially passaged for 18 growth cycles, along with increased cellular ATP level. Whole-genome sequencing identified putative compensatory mutations in the glgC gene that restored the fitness of the resistant strains, presumably by altering the bacterial energy metabolism.
