Mycolicibacter sinensis

"Mycolicibacter sinensis" (formerly "Mycobacterium sinense"[1]) is a species of bacteria from the phylum Actinomycetota that was isolated from a human manifesting tuberculosis-like disease.[3] It is susceptible to ethambutol[3] but is resistant to most other anti-tuberculosis drugs.[4] It has also been isolated from domestic and wild animals.[5]
