NTM resistance mutation database and drug resistance prediction.

Closed this issue · 3 comments

It would be great to add resistance prediction capabilities similar to what is available for TB Profiler. Is there a known database of resistance mutations for NTM?

From what I have seen it is mostly scattered in the literature (e.g. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3028756/). I haven't come across a central database, though I could have missed it. I'm happy to make a start for some of the most clinically relevant NTMs.

That would be great! It might be good to have a similar separate database (similar to tbdb for TB Profiler) that can be updated as new variants are reported in the literature. ntmdb ? I guess this would also need to include the name of the NTM ?
