The nature and frequency of mutations in the rpoB gene of rifampin-resistant clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates vary considerably according to geographical locations. There is no information on the prevalence of specific mutations in clinical M. tuberculosis strains isolated from patients in Middle-Eastern countries. In this study, 13 rifampin-resistant and 6 susceptible clinical M. tuberculosis isolates were tested for identification and characterization of mutations in the rpoB gene by INNO-LiPA Rif. TB kit and DNA sequencing of the PCR amplified target DNA. The kit identified all six susceptible strains as rifampin-sensitive and the DNA sequence of the amplified rpoB gene in the target region matched perfectly with the wild-type sequence. The kit identified 12 resistant isolates as rifampin-resistant with specific detection of mutations in 8 isolates while one of the rifampin-resistant strain was identified as rifampin-susceptible. DNA sequencing confirmed these results and, in addition, led to the specific detection of mutations in 4 rifampin-resistant isolates in which specific base changes within the target region could not be determined by the INNO-LiPA Rif. TB kit. The majority (8 of 13) of resistant isolates involved base changes at codon 531 of the rpoB gene. Mutations at codon position 531 within the rpoB gene have also been reported in majority of rifampin-resistant strains from Greece and St. Petersburg, Russia but not from other geographical locations.  相似文献

Characterization of rifampin-resistance in pathogenic mycobacteria.   总被引:29,自引:2,他引:29       下载免费PDF全文
The emergence of rifampin-resistant strains of pathogenic mycobacteria has threatened the usefulness of this drug in treating mycobacterial diseases. Critical to the treatment of individuals infected with resistant strains is the rapid identification of these strains directly from clinical specimens. It has been shown that resistance to rifampin in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae apparently involves mutations in the rpoB gene encoding the beta-subunit of the RNA polymerases of these species. DNA sequences were obtained from a 305-bp fragment of the rpoB gene from 110 rifampin-resistant and 10 rifampin-susceptible strains of M. tuberculosis from diverse geographical regions throughout the world. In 102 of 110 rifampin-resistant strains 16 mutations affecting 13 amino acids were observed. No mutations were observed in rifampin-susceptible strains. No association was found between particular mutations in the rpoB gene and drug susceptibility patterns of multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis strains. Drug-resistant M. tuberculosis strains from the same outbreak and exhibiting the same IS6110 DNA fingerprint and drug susceptibility pattern contained the same mutation in the rpoB gene. However, mutations are not correlated with IS6110 profiling outside of epidemics. The evolution of rifampin resistance as a consequence of mutations in the rpoB gene was documented in a patient who developed rifampin resistance during the course of treatment. Rifampin-resistant strains of M. leprae, Mycobacterium avium, and Mycobacterium africanum contained mutations in the rpoB gene similar to that documented for M. tuberculosis. This information served as the basis for developing a rapid DNA diagnostic assay (PCR-heteroduplex formation) for the detection of rifampin susceptibility of M. tuberculosis.  相似文献

Rifampin is the most potent drug used in the treatment of disease due to Mycobacterium kansasii. A 69-bp fragment of rpoB, the gene that encodes the beta subunit of the bacterial RNA polymerase, was sequenced and found to be identical in five rifampin-susceptible clinical isolates of M. kansasii. This sequence showed 87% homology with the Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene, with an identical deduced amino acid sequence. In contrast, missense mutations were detected in the same fragment amplified from five rifampin-resistant isolates. A rifampin-resistant strain generated in vitro also harbored an rpoB gene missense mutation that was not present in the parent isolate. All mutations detected (in codons 513, 526, and 531) have previously been described in rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis isolates. Rifampin MICs determined by E-test were <1 mg/liter for all rifampin-susceptible isolates and >256 mg/liter for all rifampin-resistant ones. In addition, four of the five rifampin-resistant isolates were also resistant to rifabutin. We have thus shown a strong association between rpoB gene missense mutations and rifampin resistance in M. kansasii. Although our results are derived from a small number of isolates and confirmation with larger numbers would be useful, they strongly suggest that mutations within rpoB form the molecular basis of rifampin resistance in this species.  相似文献

The rpoB gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.   总被引:22,自引:2,他引:22       下载免费PDF全文
A portion of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene encoding the beta subunit of RNA polymerase (rpoB) was amplified by PCR using degenerate oligonucleotides and used as a hybridization probe to isolate plasmid clones carrying the entire rpoB gene of M. tuberculosis H37Rv, a virulent, rifampin-susceptible strain. Sequence analysis of a 5,084-bp SacI genomic DNA fragment revealed a 3,534-bp open reading frame encoding an 1,178-amino-acid protein with 57% identity with the Escherichia coli beta subunit. This SacI fragment also carried a portion of the rpoC gene located 43 bp downstream from the 3' end of the rpoB open reading frame; this organization is similar to that of the rpoBC operon of E. coli. The M. tuberculosis rpoB gene was cloned into the shuttle plasmid pMV261 and electroporated into the LR223 strain of Mycobacterium smegmatis, which is highly resistant to rifampin (MIC > 200 micrograms/ml). The resulting transformants were relatively rifampin susceptible (MIC = 50 micrograms/ml). Using PCR mutagenesis techniques, we introduced a specific rpoB point mutation (associated with clinical strains of rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis) into the cloned M. tuberculosis rpoB gene and expressed this altered gene in the LR222 strain of M. smegmatis, which is susceptible to rifampin (MIC = 25 micrograms/ml). The resulting transformants were rifampin resistant (MIC = 200 micrograms/ml). The mutagenesis and expression strategy of the cloned M. tuberculosis rpoB gene that we have employed in this study will allow us to determine the rpoB mutations that are responsible for rifampin resistance in M. tuberculosis.  相似文献

DNA microarray represents one of the major advances in diagnostic sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products. Until now, arrays have been relatively expensive, complex to perform, and difficult to interpret, limiting their wide application in the clinical laboratory. A moderate-density oligonucleotide microarray that can rapidly identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis rifampin-resistant strains was developed. The method is based on the detection of point mutations and other rearrangements in the rpoB gene region determining rifampin resistance. Rifampin resistance was determined by hybridizing fluorescently labeled, amplified genetic material generated from bacterial colonies to the array. Fifty-three rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis and 15 rifampin-susceptible M. tuberculosis were tested and results were concordant with those based on culture drug susceptibility testing and sequencing. Rifampin-resistant clinical isolates were detected in as little as 1.5 hours after PCR amplification with visual results. It is demonstrated that oligonucleotide microarray is an efficient, specialized technique to implement and can be used as a rapid method for detecting rifampin resistance to complement standard culture-based method.  相似文献

An in-house mycobacteriophage amplification assay for detecting rifampin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis showed 100% sensitivity, 97.7% specificity, and 95.2% predictive value for resistance in a test of 129 isolates from a hot spot area of multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis. The applicability of the test was demonstrated in the routine work flow of a low-resource reference laboratory.  相似文献

Mutations conferring resistance to rifampin in rifampin-resistant clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates occur mostly in the 81 bp rifampin-resistance-determining region (RRDR) of the rpoB gene. In this study, 29 rifampin-resistant and 12 -susceptible clinical M. tuberculosis isolates were tested for characterization of mutations in the rpoB gene by line probe (INNO-LiPA Rif. TB) assay and the results were confirmed and extended by DNA sequencing of the PCR amplified target DNA. The line probe assay identified all 12 susceptible strains as rifampin-sensitive and the DNA sequence of RRDR in the amplified rpoB gene from two isolates matched perfectly with the wild-type sequence. The line probe assay identified 28 resistant isolates as rifampin-resistant with specific detection of mutation in 22 isolates including one isolate that exhibited hetro-resistance containing both the wild-type pattern as well as a specific mutation within RRDR while one of the rifampin-resistant strain was identified as rifampin-susceptible. DNA sequencing confirmed these results and, in addition, led to the specific detection of mutations in 5 rifampin-resistant isolates in which specific base changes within RRDR could not be determined by the line probe assay. These analyses identified 8 different mutations within RRDR of the rpoB gene including one novel mutation (S522W) that has not been reported so far. The genotyping performed on the isolates carrying similar mutations showed that majority of these isolates were unique as they exhibited varying DNA banding patterns. Correlating the ethnic origin of the infected TB patients with the occurrence of specific mutations at three main codon positions (516, 526 and 531) in the rpoB gene showed that most patients (11 of 15) from South Asian region contained mutations at codon 526 while majority of isolates from patients (6 of 11) of Middle Eastern origin contained mutations at codon 531.  相似文献

Resistance to rifampin in Mycobacterium tuberculosis results from mutations in the gene coding for the beta subunit of RNA polymerase (rpoB). At least 95% of rifampin-resistant isolates have mutations in rpoB, and the mutations are clustered in a small region. About 40 distinct point mutations and in-frame insertions and deletions in rpoB have been identified, but point mutations in two codons, those coding for Ser(531) and His(526), are seen in about 70% of rifampin-resistant clinical isolates, with Ser(531)-to-Leu (TCG-to-TGG) mutations being by far the most common. To explore this phenomenon, we isolated independent, spontaneous, rifampin-resistant mutant versions of well-characterized M. tuberculosis laboratory strain H37Rv by plating 100 separate cultures, derived from a single low-density inoculum, onto rifampin-containing medium. Rifampin-resistant mutants were obtained from 64 of these cultures. Although we anticipated that the various point mutations would occur with approximately equal frequencies, sequencing the rpoB gene from one colony per plate revealed that 39 (60.9%) were Ser(531) to Leu. We conclude that, for unknown reasons, the associated rpoB mutation occurs at a substantially higher rate than other rpoB mutations. This higher mutation rate may contribute to the high percentage of this mutation seen in clinical isolates.  相似文献

The in-vitro susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. bovis, and M. kansasii to amoxycillin alone and in combination with 2 mg/l of clavulanic acid was evaluated by broth dilution. The MIC90 of amoxycillin plus clavulanic acid was 4 mg/l compared with greater than 32 mg/l for amoxycillin alone when tested against M. tuberculosis (n = 27). M. bovis (n = 8) was the most susceptible species with an MIC90 of amoxycillin 8 mg/l, compared with 0.5 mg/l for the combination. M. kansasii (n = 6), with an MIC90 of 16 mg/l for amoxycillin plus clavulanic acid was more resistant than either M. tuberculosis or M. bovis. Ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid with an MIC90 of 32 mg/l was less active against M. tuberculosis (n = 28) than amoxycillin plus clavulanic acid. The addition of clavulanic acid to amoxycillin greatly improves its in-vitro activity against M. tuberculosis and M. bovis.  相似文献

Multidrug resistant-tuberculosis is a pressing problem. One of the major mechanisms proposed to lead to the emergence of drug resistance is pharmacokinetic mismatch. Stated as a falsifiable hypothesis, the greater the pharmacokinetic mismatch between rifampin and isoniazid, the higher the isoniazid- and rifampin-resistant subpopulation sizes become with time. To test this, we performed hollow-fiber-system studies for both bactericidal and sterilizing effects in experiments of up to 42 days. We mimicked pharmacokinetics of 600-mg/day rifampin and 300-mg/day isoniazid administered to patients. Rifampin was administered first, followed by isoniazid 0, 6, 12, and 24 h later. The treatment was for drug-susceptible Mycobacterium tuberculosis in some experiments and hollow fiber systems with inoculum preseeded with isoniazid- and rifampin-resistant isogenic Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains in others. Analysis of variance revealed that the 12-h and 24-h-mismatched regimens always killed better than the matched regimens during both bactericidal and sterilizing effects (P < 0.05). This means that either the order of scheduling or the sequential administration of drugs in combination therapy may lead to significant improvement in microbial killing. Rifampin-resistant and isoniazid-resistant subpopulations were not significantly higher with increased mismatching in numerous analysis-of-variance comparisons. Thus, the pharmacokinetic mismatch hypothesis was rejected. Instead, sequential administration of anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs (i.e., deliberate mismatch) following particular schedules suggests a new paradigm for accelerating M. tuberculosis killing. We conclude that current efforts aimed at better pharmacokinetic matching to decrease M. tuberculosis resistance emergence are likely futile and counterproductive.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Slab gel heteroduplex analysis (HDA), a popular scanning method for genetic mutations, uses DNA fragments typically generated by PCR to create homo- and heteroduplex molecules with conformational differences and sequence-dependent electrophoretic profiles. Use of a universal heteroduplex generator (UHG) enhances the subtle variations caused by single-base substitutions. METHODS: The HDA-UHG slab gel format was modified for an efficient capillary-based method. The effect of staining dyes TOPRO5 and YOPRO1 on the analysis of heteroduplexes was studied, as well as ultraviolet absorbance and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection methods. In addition, the entangled polymers hydroxyethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, and linear polyacrylamide were evaluated as separation matrices. RESULTS: This assay was able to detect the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its rifampin susceptibility directly from clinical specimens in dramatically reduced analysis time (30 min vs 2.5 h). Optimized conditions included 0.3% methyl cellulose as the separation matrix, on-line staining using 1 micromol/L YOPRO1, and LIF detection for quantitative and reproducible analysis of single-base substitutions in the rifampin resistance-determining region of rpoB that give rise to the rifampin-resistant phenotype of M. tuberculosis. We generated 95% confidence limits using the wild-type sequence and used these limits to determine rifampin susceptibility in samples. CONCLUSIONS: Capillary electrophoresis, combined with the HDA-UHG technique, may be of value for rapid and efficient clinical diagnosis of rifampin-resistant tuberculosis strains.  相似文献

Most Mycobacterium tuberculosis rifampin-resistant strains have been associated with mutations in an 81-bp rifampin resistance-determining region (RRDR) in the gene rpoB. However, if this region alone were targeted, rifampin-resistant strains with mutations outside the RRDR would not be detected. In this study, among 51 rifampin-resistant clinical isolates analyzed by sequencing 1,681-bp-long DNA fragments containing the RRDR, 47 isolates contained mutations within the RRDR, three isolates contained mutations both within and outside the RRDR, and only one isolate had a single missense mutation (Arg548His) located outside the RRDR. A drug susceptibility test of recombinant Mycobacterium smegmatis and M. tuberculosis isolates carrying mutated rpoB (Arg548His) showed an increased MIC for rifampin compared to that of the control strains. Modeling of the Arg548His mutant RpoB-DNA complex revealed that the His548 side chain formed a more stable hydrogen bond structure than did Arg548, reducing the flexibility of the rifampin-resistant cluster II region of RpoB, suggesting that the RpoB Arg548His mutant does not effectively interact with rifampin and results in bacterial resistance to the drug. This is the first report on the relationship between the mutation in codon 548 of RpoB and rifampin resistance in tuberculosis. The novel mutational profile of the rpoB gene described here will contribute to the comprehensive understanding of rifampin resistance patterns and to the development of a useful tool for simple and rapid drug susceptibility tests.  相似文献

Rifampin is a major drug used to treat leprosy and tuberculosis. The rifampin resistance of Mycobacterium leprae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis results from a mutation in the rpoB gene, encoding the β subunit of RNA polymerase. A method for the molecular determination of rifampin resistance in these two mycobacteria would be clinically valuable, but the relationship between the mutations and susceptibility to rifampin must be clarified before its use. Analyses of mutations responsible for rifampin resistance using clinical isolates present some limitations. Each clinical isolate has its own genetic variations in some loci other than rpoB, which might affect rifampin susceptibility. For this study, we constructed recombinant strains of Mycobacterium smegmatis carrying the M. leprae or M. tuberculosis rpoB gene with or without mutation and disrupted their own rpoB genes on the chromosome. The rifampin and rifabutin susceptibilities of the recombinant bacteria were measured to examine the influence of the mutations. The results confirmed that several mutations detected in clinical isolates of these two pathogenic mycobacteria can confer rifampin resistance, but they also suggested that some mutations detected in M. leprae isolates or rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis isolates are not involved in rifampin resistance.  相似文献

目的 研究杭州地区结核分枝杆菌(Mycobacterium tuberculosis)对利福平(RFP)的耐受与rpoB基因突变的关系。方法 随机挑选了90例结核杆菌感染的病例。选择了利福平作为主要的药物进行药敏实验,PCR扩增39株耐RFP结核分支杆菌的rpoB基因片段(580bp);测定扩增片段的序列。并与美国国立生物信息中心(www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide)检索获得结核杆菌野生株(利福平敏感株)序列(登陆号:AJ749948)作对比分析。结果 结果显示PCR结核测序方法得到了39例结核杆菌耐药株。51例敏感株,与药敏实验的方法检测的结果完全一致。测定的11株临床分离的耐药株中,526位或531位有突变,其中526位有突变的有7株,占耐药测定株63.6%,531位突变的有4株。占耐药测定株36.4%。未见两位点同时突变。检测的11株敏感株,未见526位或531位有突变。结论 杭州地区结核分支杆菌耐利福平的发生与rpoB基因的526位或531位突变密切相关,与国外的报告基本相似。但526位突变占耐药测定株高达63.6%。如此高比例目前国内外未见相似报道。PCR扩增和产物测序将是临床检测结核分支杆菌耐利福平和耐多药的一种迅速、准确的方法。  相似文献
