“…Certain mutations in the RIF resistance determining region (RRDR) of the rpoB gene of MTBC appear to confer cross-resistance to both RIF and RFB (1121). The mutations S531L, H526Y and H526D are most common and are found in isolates from a majority of MDR-TB patients.…”

“…Although high-level cross-resistance between the two rifamycins is reported, some studies have shown RFB susceptibility in RIF-resistant strains of M. tuberculosis in association with specific rpoB mutations (Cavusoglu et al, 2004; Yoshida et al, 2010; Jamieson et al, 2014; ElMaraachli et al, 2015). Thus, it has been argued that knowing the type of rpoB mutation may have clinical implications for guiding rifamycin-based therapeutic regimens (Sirgel et al, 2013; Berrada et al, 2016).…”

“…The GenoType MTBDRplus assay has been successfully applied to detection of culture samples since 2007 and clinical specimens since 2010 in Taiwan. Moreover, D516V mutation of the rpoB gene has been confirmed to confer resistance specifically to RIF in the commercial INNO-LiPA Rif assay (11,13). The GenoType MTBDRplus assay also has a probe targeting D516V that might be used for identification of RFB susceptibility.…”
