Tobramycin adaptation alters the antibiotic susceptibility of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> quorum sensing-null mutants
2023-01-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The opportunistic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses the LasR-I quorum sensing system to increase resistance to the aminoglycoside antibiotic tobramycin. Paradoxically, lasR -null mutants are commonly isolated from chronic human infections treated with tobramycin, suggesting there may be a mechanism allowing the lasR -null mutants to persist under tobramycin selection. We hypothesized that...
