DNA repair systems and the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: varying activities at different stages of infection [PDF]
Mycobacteria, including most of all MTB (Mycobacterium tuberculosis), cause pathogenic infections in humans and, during the infectious process, are exposed to a range of environmental insults, including the host's immune response.

Mechanisms of Antibiotic Resistance and Novel Therapeutic Approaches for <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i>: A Narrative Review With a Focus on Tuberculosis Mutations in Iran. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), is a highly contagious disease and one of the leading causes of mortality globally. The emergence and dissemination of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) strains of M. tuberculosis have become a major concern, especially in developing countries.

Fluoroquinolones and isoniazid-resistant tuberculosis: implications for the 2018 WHO guidance. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: 2018 World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for the treatment of isoniazid (H)-resistant (Hr) tuberculosis recommend a four-drug regimen: rifampicin (R), ethambutol (E), pyrazinamide (Z) and levofloxacin (Lfx), with or without H ([H]RZE-

Physical characterization of katG, encoding catalase HPI of Escherichia coli [PDF]
The gene encoding the bifunctional catalase-peroxidase HPI from Escherichia coli was located on a 3.8-kb HindIII fragment of the Clarke and Carbon plasmid pLC36-19 using transposon Tn5 insertions. This fragment was subcloned into the HindIII site of pAT153 to create pBT22. The size of the insert was reduced by BAL 31 digestion of one end to an apparent

Objectives: It is established that resistance to rifampicin (RIF) in 90% of RIF-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates is attributable to point mutations in the rpoB gene, whilst 50–95% of M. tuberculosis resistance to isoniazid (INH) is caused by
