Abstract excerpt
The opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), a leading cause of severe infections, becomes increasingly resistant to antibiotics, including the last resort antibiotic, polymyxin-B (PMB). Previous studies have shown that calcium (Ca 2+ ) at the levels encountered during infections increases Pa resistance to PMB. However, the mechanisms of this Ca 2+ regulation are not known. Here, we identified t...
