Gene Sequencing for Routine Verification of Pyrazinamide Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a Role for pncA but Not rpsA

Pyrazinamide (PZA) is an important component of first-line therapy for the treatment of tuberculosis. Here, we evaluate targeted gene sequencing as a supplement to phenotypic PZA susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Routine sequencing of pncA, but not rpsA, is effective for verifica...
