The anti-tuberculosis therapeutic bedaquiline (BDQ) is used against Mycobacterium abscessus. In M. abscessus BDQ is only bacteriostatic and less potent compared to M.tuberculosis or M. smegmatis. Here we demonstrate its reduced ATP synthesis inhibition against M. abscessus inside-out vesicles, inclu...
