Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in an enzyme target are one of the most common mechanisms whereby antibiotic resistance arises. Identification of the resistance mutations in bacteria is essential for understanding the structural basis of antibiotic resistance and design of new drugs. However, the traditionally used experimental approaches to identify resistance mutations were usually labor-intensive and costly. RESULTS: We...
