The susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to isoniazid and the Arg-->Leu mutation at codon 463 of katG are not associated.

A mutation (CCG-->CTG [Arg-->Leu]) in codon 463 of katG (catalase peroxidase) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been found in isoniazid (INH)-resistant strains. A PCR restriction endonuclease analysis to detect this mutation was applied to 395 M. tuberculosis isolates from patients in...
