Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Bacterial persistence is a significant cause of the intractability of chronic and relapsing infections. Despite its importance, many of the underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. METHODS: Antibiotic-tolerant mutants of Burkholderia thailandensis were isolated through exposure to lethal doses of AMP or MEM, followed by whole-genome sequencing to identify mutations. Subsequently, these...
