Sequence analysis of 58 multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains from Germany and 55 susceptible strains from a reference collection comprising major phylogenetic lineages confirmed that variations in Rv2629, 191A/C and 965C/T, are specific for genotypes Beijing and Ghana, respectively, but not involved in the development of rifampin (rifampicin) resistance.

In an effort to identify the new resistance factors in rifampin resistant (RIF (r)) Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M. tb), comparative proteome analysis and gene mutation assays were used to identify the differentially expressed proteins and correlated gene mutations among clinical RIF (r) isolates lacking rpoB mutations, RIF sensitive (RIF (s)) isolates, and the laboratory H37Rv strain. MALDI-TOF-MS revealed nine differentially expressed protein spots.
