Analogous mechanisms of resistance to benzothiazinones and dinitrobenzamides in Mycobacterium smegmatis.
Tuberculosis is still a leading cause of death worldwide. The selection and spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis multidrug-resistant (MDR-TB) and extensively drug-resistant strains (XDR-TB) is a severe public health problem. Recently, two different classes of chemical series, the benzothiazinones (B...
