Towards Understanding MCR-like Colistin Resistance.

Trends in microbiology - 1 Sept 2018

Sun Jian, Zhang Huimin, Liu Ya-Hong, Feng Youjun

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance has become a global public health priority. Polymyxins, a family of cationic polypeptide antibiotics, act as a final line of refuge against severe infections by Gram-negative pathogens with pan-drug resistance. Unfortunately, this last-resort antibiotic has been challenged by the emergence and global spread of mobilized colistin resistance determinants (mcr). Given the fact that it has...
