Mycobacterium tuberculosis Catalase and Peroxidase Activities and Resistance to Oxidative Killing in Human Monocytes In Vitro

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has a relatively high resistance to killing by hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides. Resistance may be mediated by mycobacterial catalase-peroxidase (KatG) and possibly by alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (AhpC). To determine the interrelationship between sensitivity to H(...
