In Mycobacterium tuberculosis the multifunctional heme enzyme KatG is indispensable for activation of isoniazid (INH), a first-line pro-drug for treatment of tuberculosis. We present a cryo-EM methodology for structural and functional characterization of KatG and INH resistance variants. The cryo-EM structure of the 161 kDa KatG dimer in the presence of INH is reported to 2.7 A resolution allowing the observation of potential INH binding sites. In addition, cryo-EM structures of two INH resistance variants, identified from clinical isolates, W107R and T275P, are reported. In combination with electronic absorbance spectroscopy our cryo-EM approach reveals how these resistance variants cause disorder in the heme environment preventing heme uptake and retention, providing insight into INH resistance.
