Contribution of putative efflux pump genes to isoniazid resistance in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Background: Isoniazid (INH) resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been mainly attributed to mutations in katG (64%) and inhA (19%). However, 20%–30% resistance to INH cannot be explained by mutations alone. Hence, other mechanisms besides mutations may play a significant role in providing dru...
