New drugs are urgently needed for more effective treatment. Nitroxoline, an antibiotic used for treating urinary tract infections in Europe, has recently been shown to have promising activity against\n              <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              . However, the mechanism of its modified activity is not known. In anticipation for its potential clinical use, in this study, we investigated the mechanism of nitroxoline activity modification through mutant selection followed by whole-genome sequencing. We identified mutations in a transcriptional repressor MarR (\n              <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">MAB_2648<\/jats:italic>\n              c) controlling the expression of efflux pumps MmpS5-MmpL5 family that are associated with nitroxoline activity modification. Complementation of the mutants with the wild-type\n              <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">marR<\/jats:italic>\n              gene restored the MIC values to levels comparable to those of the wild-type strain. This study elucidates the key mechanism of how\n              <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">M. abscessus<\/jats:italic>\n              mutations modify the activity of nitroxoline, which has significant
