Induction of Bacteriophage PinR Facilitates the Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance
2022-03-29
Abstract excerpt
A recent work reports that the single treatment of β-lactams can cause a SOS-independent superfast evolution of multi-drug resistance in the DNA repair deficiency Escherichia coli ( E. coli ), but the mechanism is not yet clear. Here, we find that the induction of PinR, a lambdoid prophage Rac, is involved in this process and facilitates the evolution of antibiotic resistance in DNA repair deficiency bacteria th...
