The relationship between embb306 and embb406 mutations and ethambutol resistant in Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from patiens in west of Iran

Abstract: Background: Mutations in emb B gene have been reported in ethambutol (EMB) resistance Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M. tuberculosis ) isolates. The aim of this study was survey on emb B 306 and 406 EMB resistant M. tuberculosis isolated from patients in West of Iran (2014-2015). Methods: Fifty strains of M. tuberculosis from patients with pu… Show more

“…Mutations in the embB gene can cause EMB resistance by a mechanism of drug target alteration [6]. In previous studies, the embB mutation rates in EMB r isolates varied widely, from 10 [50] to 100% [23]. In this study, 62.5% of the EMB r isolates mutated in embB, closer to Bakula et al's finding, which focused only on MDR isolates [17].…”

“…This drug was first found effective in 1961. [ 7 8 ] EMB's target is the cell wall and this drug interferes with arabinosyl transferase. This enzyme is coded by embCAB operon and it is associated with the biosynthesis of arabinogalactan and lipoarabinomannan.…”

“…[ 13 ] Using the Lowenstein-Jensen proportion method and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-sequencing, it was observed that 14% of M. tuberculosis strains were resistant to EMB in Iran and 85.71% of the resistant isolates had embB 306 mutations. [ 7 ] In another study in Iran using Lowenstein-Jensen proportion method, PCR- single-strand conformation analysis (SSCP; is a post-PCR technique that can be used to screen for mutations that are not limited to a single hot spot but are randomly distributed throughout the exons) and direct sequencing, it was observed that 2/32 of M. tuberculosis strains were resistant to EMB. The sequencing of the embB 306 gene in this study showed that both isolates of EMB-resistant M. tuberculosis were mutated.…”
