Magnesium Links Starvation-Mediated Antibiotic Persistence to ATP

ABSTRACT Bacterial persisters emerge and increase in numbers over time as a bacterial culture grows from log phase to stationary phase. However, the underlying basis of the inevitable tendency is unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of nutrients in starvation-mediated persister formation...
