Abstract excerpt
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among human pathogens is a serious threat to global health, demanding novel treatment strategies. Antibiotics based on programmable antisense oligomers (asobiotics) offer an attractive solution, as their specificity can be quickly updated to target resistant bacteria. To understand the genetic architecture of resistance to asobiotics, we used laboratory evolution assays...
