Mutations in embB gene associated with resistance to ethambutol in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from TB patients in the west of Iran (2014–15)

Mutations in embB gene associated with resistance to ethambutol in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from TB patients in the west of Iran (2014–15)

Introduction Mutations in embB gene, especially those in ethambutol resistance-determining region (ERDR), are known as “hot spots”. These mutations have frequently been reported in EMB-resistant M. tuberculosis isolates, using the Sequence analysis as a precise and effective method. The aim of this...
