Isoniazid shows its harmful effect on M. tuberculosis through activation by KatG (catalase-peroxidase). The primary target of the activated structure is InhA (NADH-dependent, 2-trans enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase), whose inactivation results in loss of the precursor to mycolic acid (a major component of the cell wall skeleton) and accumulation of hexacosanoic acid (C26:0), Isoniazid resistance was thus conferred by mutations in the kat G gene as well as inhA gene. Involvement of additional genes such as ahpC (encoding alkyl hydroperoxidase), kasA/B (encoding B-ketoacyl ACP synthase), or ndh (encoding NADH dehydrogenase) have also been proposed. It is considered that the mutations in the katG, inhA, and ahpC genes cover up to 80% of isoniazid resistance of clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis.}, pages = {13--18}, title = {結核菌の化学予防剤イソニアジドへの耐性}, volume = {115}, year = {2001} }
