Membrane voltage dysregulation driven by metabolic dysfunction underlies bactericidal activity of aminoglycosides
Aminoglycosides are broad-spectrum antibiotics whose mechanism of action is under debate. It is widely accepted that membrane voltage potentiates aminoglycoside activity, which is ascribed to voltage-dependent drug uptake. In this paper, we measured the response of Escherichia coli treated with amin...
