A DedA Family Membrane Protein Is Required for Burkholderia thailandensis Colistin Resistance
5 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Colistin is a “last resort” antibiotic for treatment of infections caused by some multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. Resistance to colistin varies between bacterial species. Some Gram-negative bacteria such as Burkholderia spp. are intrinsically resistant to very high levels of colistin with minimal inhibitory concentrations often above 0.5 mg/ml. We have previously shown DedA family proteins...
