TL;DR
This paper presents the draft genomes of three drug-resistant tuberculosis strains from Morocco, aiding in understanding resistance and tracking disease spread.
Contribution
The novel contribution is the release of draft genome sequences of three XDR Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from Morocco.
Findings
Three XDR Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains (UM29, UM64, and UM66) were sequenced.
Genome data supports resistance profiling and molecular epidemiology studies.
Sequencing data is publicly available for further research.
Abstract
We report draft whole-genome sequences of three extensively drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains (UM29, UM64, and UM66) isolated in Morocco in 2013. These assemblies support resistance profiling, molecular epidemiology, and comparative genomics. Raw sequencing reads and genome assemblies are publicly accessible through the NCBI database under BioProject PRJNA1302428.
Genes, proteins, chemicals, diseases, species, mutations and cell lines named across the full text — each resolved to its canonical identifier and authoritative record.
