Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Colistin susceptibility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) structure that is controlled by the modulation of several two-component regulatory systems. In this study, we attempted to elucidate the role of these two-component systems in the development of colistin resistance in P. aeruginosa. METHODS: pmrA-, phoP-, parR- or cprR-inactivated mutants were constructed...
