Amoxicillin-resistant <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> can be resensitized by targeting the mevalonate pathway as indicated by sCRilecs-seq

2021-09-13

Abstract excerpt

Antibiotic resistance in the important opportunistic human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae is on the rise. This is particularly problematic in the case of the β-lactam antibiotic amoxicillin, which is the first-line therapy. It is therefore crucial to uncover targets that would kill or resensitize amoxicillin-resistant pneumococci. To do so, we developed a genome-wide, single-cell based, gene silencing screen u...
