Investigation of the Rv3065, Rv2942, Rv1258c, Rv1410c, and Rv2459 efflux pump genes expression among multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates
Background: Different resistance mechanisms for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) have been reported. Although mutations in target genes are the main cause of drug resistance, efflux pumps (Eps) also play an important role in this process....
