Clinically relevant mutations in core metabolic genes confer antibiotic resistance – Science Magazine
Antibiotic resistance arising from mutation is common among pathogenic bacteria. However, this process is not well understood, and most of the mutations that have…
Structured Abstract
Abstract
Although metabolism plays an active role in antibiotic lethality, antibiotic resistance is generally associated with drug target modification, enzymatic inactivation, and/or transport rather than metabolic processes. Evolution experiments of Escherichia coli rely on growth-dependent selection, which may provide a limited view of the antibiotic resistance landscape. We sequenced and analyzed E. coli adapted to representative antibiotics at increasingly heightened metabolic…
