  • 6%) were positive for any Mycobacterium species by acid fast staining or culture of any of their samples.

  • NRC-1 [ 31], but not in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptomyces coelicolor or Streptococcus pneumoniae .) The occurrence of GshA homologs in these organisms could reflect persistence of an ancestral GshA in only some genera in the Archaea and in the Gram-positive bacteria, or could be the result of lateral transfer into a limited number of organisms.

  • We found that Mycobacterium avium infection was related to symptomatic diarrhea and greater mortality as has been reported previously [ 29 ] . Our study shows that frequency of isolation of M. avium was greater in urine and stool samples.

The topoisomerase I from Mycobacterium smegmatis has been demonstrated biochemically not to bind Zn(II) [ 34 ] . In contrast, mutation disrupting the fourth Zn(II) motif of Helicobacter pylori topoisomerase I abolished enzyme function in vivo [ 35 ] . Therefore there may be significant differences in the mechanisms of type IA topoisomerases from different organisms with respect to requirement of Zn(II) binding for relaxation activity.
