Missense Mutations in the Unfoldase ClpC1 of the Caseinolytic Protease Complex Are Associated with Pyrazinamide Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Previously, we showed that mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis panD, involved in coenzyme A biosynthesis, cause resistance against pyrazinoic acid, the bioactive component of the prodrug pyrazinamide. To identify additional resistance mechanisms, we isolated mutants resistant against pyrazinoic acid and subjected panD wild-type strains to whole-genome sequencing. Eight of the nine resistant strains harbored missense mutations in the unfoldase ClpC1 associated with the caseinolytic protease complex.

Through mutant selection on agar containing pyrazinoic acid (POA), the bioactive form of the prodrug pyrazinamide (PZA), we recently showed that missense mutations in the aspartate decarboxylase PanD and the unfoldase ClpC1, and loss-of-function mutation of polyketide synthases Mas and PpsA-E involved in phthiocerol dimycocerosate synthesis, cause resistance to POA and PZA in Mycobacterium tube...
متن کاملMutations in the RpoB Gene of Multidrug-Resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Isolates from Semarang, Indonesia
ABSTRACTTuberculosis is an infectious disease which occurs widely in the world and becomes one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide. Mutations of the RpoB gene cause the resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to rifampicin that contributes to the occurrence of MDR-TB. This study aimed to determine the pattern of rpoB gene polymorphisms in the MDR M. tuberculosis in Semarang, Indonesia. Mos...
متن کاملpncA GENE SEQUENCE ANALYSIS FOR PYRAZINAMIDE RESISTANCE IN MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS FROM HIGH-INCIDENCE SETTING
Standard culture-based drug susceptibility testing (DST) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) to pyrazinamide (PZA) is difficult to perform. PZA is a prodrug that has to be converted to its active form pyrazinoic acid (POA) by pyrazinamidase (PZase) enzyme, encoded by pncA gene and loss of PZase activity is associated with PZA resistance. To further define genetic basis of PZA resistance and det...
متن کاملCharacterization of Mutations in the Rpob and Katg Gene of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Isolates From Pasteur Institute of Tehran
Objective: The Rifampicin resistance and susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are caused by mutations in the 81-base pair region of the rpoB gene encoding the b-subunit of RNA polymerase. Methods: Isoniazid resistance of M. tuberculosis is related to mutations in inha , oxyR and ahpC genes which 30 to 90 percent of Isoniazid resistance is occurred in 3015 codons of kat...
