Efflux pumps positively contribute to rifampin resistance in rpoB mutant Mycobacterium tuberculosis
31 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: While several recent studies have documented the importance of efflux pumps as mediators of rifampin (RIF) resistance, it remains uncertain which efflux pumps play major roles in rifampin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains harboring rpoB gene mutations. METHODS: In this study, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for RIF were calculated and the expression of 13 efflux pump genes was...
