Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic resistance is a pervasive and growing clinical problem. We describe an evaluation of a reverse engineering approach for identifying cellular mechanisms and genes that could be manipulated to increase antibiotic sensitivity in a resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate. We began by chemically mutating a broadly resistant isolate of P. aeruginosa and screening for mutants with increased sensitivity to...
