Genomes of Two Clinical Isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from Odisha, India
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report whole-genome sequences of two clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from patients in Odisha, India. The sequence analysis revealed that these isolates are of an ancestral type and might represent some of the "pristine" isolates in India that have not admixed with other lineages.

Detection of Isoniazid-Resistant Clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from India using Ser315Thr marker by Comparison of molecular methods
In this study, Substitution at codon Ser315 of katG gene, a reliable marker for isoniazid (INH) resistance was analyzed and compared by three molecular methods such as DNA sequencing, polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) in 105 phenotypically resistant isolates obtained from various parts of Ind...

Isoniazid, is the only antituberculous drug for which the relation between lack of virulence and acquisition of resistance was associated. INH-resistant mutants were shown to contain defective katG gene. Classical studies showed that INH-resistant south Indian isolates have lower virulence in guinea pigs and higher susceptibility to H2O2. It is of interest to assess the virulence in south India...

Background and Aims: Unlike many global efforts to eradicate tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium, it remains as a life-threatening infection with a worldwide incidence of 1.5 million cases each year. However, due to the lack of information about Mycobacterium tuberculosis characterization, more studies are required to evaluate strain diversity and epidemiology of tuberculosis to improve the th...
