Extracellular DNA of slow growers of mycobacteria and its contribution to biofilm formation and drug tolerance

2020-12-02

Abstract excerpt

DNA is basically an intracellular molecule that stores genetic information and carries instructions for growth and reproduction in all cellular organisms. However, in some bacteria, DNA has additional roles on the outside as an extracellular DNA (eDNA), an essential component for the formation of antibiotic tolerance bacteria in biofilm. Mycobacteria include life-threating human pathogens, most of which are slow g...
