Characterization of 2-(2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione resistance in pyomelanogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa DKN343.
Pyomelanin is a reddish-brown pigment that provides bacteria and fungi protection from oxidative stress, and is reported to contribute to infection persistence. Production of this pigment can be inhibited by the anti-virulence agent 2-(2-nitro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)-1,3-cyclohexanedione (NTBC). T...
