13 Feb 2018
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT The naturally antibiotic-resistant bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei is the causative agent of melioidosis, a disease with stubbornly high mortality and a complex, protracted treatment regimen. The worldwide incidence of melioidosis is likely grossly underreported, though it is known to be highly endemic in northern Australia and Southeast Asia. Bacterial disulfide bond (DSB) proteins catalyze the...
