Abstract: The control of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is a major challenge. The frequency and mutation characteristics indicate the efficiency of molecular tests for the rapid detection of TB drug resistance. This study examined the existence of katG and inhA mutations for isoniazid (INH) resistance and rpoB mutations for rifampicin (RFP) resistance. In total, 178 drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) isolates were analyzed. Mutations in katG encoding and inhA regulatory regions were detected in 136/168 (81.0%) and 29/168 (17.3%), respectively, with the most prominent mutation of Ser315Thr substitution in katG in 126/168 (75.0%), and-15 C to T substitution in the regulatory region of the inhA (26/168; 15.5%). Two distinct katG mutations (Tyr337Cys, 1003InsG) were identified. Of 125 RFP-resistant isolates, 118 (94.4%) carried mutations affecting the 81-bp RFP resistance-determining region, with the most commonly affected codons 450, 445, and 435 identified in 74 (59.2%), 26 (20.8%), and 12 (9.6%) isolates, respectively. Genetic mutations were highly associated with phenotypic INH and RFP resistance, and the majority shared similarities with those reported in previous studies in Thailand and other Asian countries. These data are useful for guiding the use and improvement of molecular tests for TB drug resistance.
