Coarse-grained simulations uncover Gram-negative bacterial defense against polymyxins by the outer membrane

The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria is a formidable barrier against antibiotics. Understanding the structure and function of the OM is essential for the discovery of novel membrane-acting agents against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens. However, it remains challenging to obt...
