Introduction

The enzyme inhA is coded from the inhA gene that is simillar in sequence to the Salmonella typhimuriumgene which plays a role in fatty acid biosynthesis [1]. Inha is an NADH dependent trans enoyl-acyl ACP carrier protein that plays a role in the sysnthesis of Mycolic Acid, and is part of a short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family [2][3]. Mycolic acids are long chain fatty acids that are essential in cell wall formation of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosisas well as other mycobateria such as Mycobacterium leprae[4]. Inha has been propsed as the target of the thionamide drugs, ethionamide (ETH) and isoniazid (INH), which have been used in treatment of mycobacterial infections [3].
