Following publication of the original article [1], it was reported that there was an error in affiliation 1 and that the Background section of the Abstract had to be revised.
Department of Chinese Medicine Integrated with Western Medicine, College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 16,369 **gshi Road, Lixia District, **an, Shandong, 250355, People’s Republic of China.
FormalPara The corrected version of affiliation 1 is:Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, **an, Shandong, 250014, People’s Republic of China.
FormalPara The incorrect background text was:Two-component systems (TCSs) assume a pivotal function in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tuberculosis) growth. However, the exact regulatory mechanism of this system needs to be elucidated, and only a few studies have investigated the effect of gene mutations within TCSs on M.tuberculosis transmission. This research explored the relationship between TCSs gene mutation and the global transmission of (M.tuberculosis).
FormalPara The corrected background text is:Two-component systems (TCSs) play a crucial role in the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). However, the precise regulatory mechanism of their contribution remains to be elucidated, and only a limited number of studies have investigated the impact of gene mutations within TCSs on the transmission of M. tuberculosis. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relationship between TCSs gene mutation and the global transmission of M. tuberculosis.
The original article has been updated.
