“…Several reports mentioned that most FQs-resistant MTB isolates had mutations in the QRDR of DNA gyrase, which is the case of the present study, as 67.5% of phenotypically OFX-resistant isolates were found to harbor mutations in gyrA or gyrB genes. Our results showed that Ala90Val was the most predominant substitution (52.2%; 12/23) in contrast to previous studies reporting the predominance of Asp94Gly (25%) 14 , Ala90Thr (50%) 13 and Asp94Ala (67.6%) substitutions 11 .…”

“…The emergence of pre-extensively and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (Pre-XDR/XDR-TB) among MDR-TB isolates represents a serious hurdle for TB Mutations in DNA gyrase conferring resistance to quinolones have been extensively studied 7,8,13 . Several reports mentioned that most FQs-resistant MTB isolates had mutations in the QRDR of DNA gyrase, which is the case of the present study, as 67.5% of phenotypically OFX-resistant isolates were found to harbor mutations in gyrA or gyrB genes.…”

“…In our present study, mutations at gyrA codon 89, 90, 91, and 94 were observed in 75.3% of resistant isolates. The frequency of mutations conferring FQ r is similar to Shanghai (76.0%), although it is lower than those in Russia (83.0%), India (81.0%) and Thailand (92.3%), and higher than those in Morocco (30.0%) and New York (67.0%) (Sullivan et al, 1895; Mokrousov et al, 2008; Zhu et al, 2012; Disratthakit et al, 2016; Singhal et al, 2016; Chaoui et al, 2018), indicating that mutations in gyrA tend to differ by geographic region. In line with previous studies (Singhal et al, 2016; Pang et al, 2017; Chawla et al, 2018), substitutions at codon 94 were the most frequent mutation among FQ r isolates.…”

“…DNA gyrase is encoded by the gyrA and gyrB genes. 7 , 8 In contrast, aminoglycosides inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the ribosome near the A site. The primary mechanism of acquires resistance to aminoglycosides in mycobacteria is based on modification of the 30S subunit of the ribosome as the drug target.…”
