There were 38 mutated patterns within the sequenced whole rpoB gene of the 120 isolates. Statistical analysis indicated that mutations, S450L, H445D, H445Y, and H445R, were associated with RIF and RFB resistance. Of these mutations, S450L, H445D, and H445Y were associated with high-level RIF and RFB MIC. H445R was associated with high-level RIF MIC, but not high-level RFB MIC. D435
