Abstract excerpt
Objectives: Fosfomycin activity in Escherichia coli depends on several genes of unknown importance for fosfomycin resistance. The objective was to characterize the role of uhpT , glpT , cyaA and ptsI genes in fosfomycin resistance in E. coli. Methods: WT E. coli BW25113 and null mutants, Δ uhpT , Δ glpT , Δ cyaA , Δ ptsI , Δ glpT-uhpT , Δ glpT-cyaA , Δ glpT-ptsI , Δ uhpT-cyaA , Δ uhpT-ptsI and Δ ptsI-cyaA , were...
