The tRNA methyltransferase TrmB is critical for Acinetobacter baumannii stress responses and pulmonary infection

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Successful pathogens must be able to adapt to a multitude of stressors imposed by their host. Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a major global health threat due to its exceptional ability to adapt to hostile environments and skyrocketing rates of multidrug resistance. Recent studies have begun to explore the importance of tRNA methylation in the regulation of bacterial stress responses, including...
