M. tuberculosis SigH and Mrx2 are involved in the prodrug activation of nNFs. MIC90 values (μg/ml) for the nNF derivatives nNF-C2 and nNF-C4 in the M. tuberculosis H37Rv-wild type strain (wt), M. tuberculosis mrx2 KO mutant (Δmrx2), complemented M. tuberculosis mrx2 KO (Δmrx2::mrx2), M. tuberculosis sigH KO (ΔsigH), and the complemented M. tuberculosis sigH KO (ΔsigH::sigH). mrx2 and sigH KO mutants showed higher resistance to both nNF-C2 and nNF-C4 than the H37RvWT, while their complementation with the corresponding wt version of the KO-gene, restored the sensitivity.
