Study of ethA gene sequence in Ethionamide resistant clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Study of ethA gene sequence in Ethionamide resistant clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Background: Ethionamide (ETH) is a structural analog of isoniazid and secondary line anti-tuberculosis drugs. Both of Ethionamide and isoniazid target INHA protein in mycobacterium tuberculosis. This protein involved in mycolic acid biosynthesis. The purpose of this study is evaluation of sequence o...
