Comparison of in vitro Susceptibility of Mycobacteria Against PA-824 to Identify Key Residues of Ddn, the Deazoflavin-Dependent Nitroreductase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

OBJECTIVE: PA-824 (Pretomanid), a bicyclic nitroimidazole drug, exhibits significant bactericidal activity toward Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in vitro and in vivo, but not against Mycobacterium smegmatis. Through catalytic bioreduction, deazaflavin-dependent nitroreductase (Ddn) within MTB dire...
