KRS inhibitors revealed multiple resistance-conferring substitutions including several clinically relevant mutations. Genetic validation of these mutations confirmed resistance of up to 100-fold and computational modeling dissected their role in drug resistance. We discuss potential applications of this data including the potential to design compounds that can bypass the most serious resistance mutations and future resistance surveillance.
