Polymyxins Bind to the Cell Surface of Unculturable Acinetobacter baumannii and Cause Unique Dependent Resistance

Abstract Multidrug‐resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is a top‐priority pathogen globally and polymyxins are a last‐line therapy. Polymyxin dependence in A. baumannii (i.e., nonculturable on agar without polymyxins) is a unique and highly‐resistant phenotype with a significant potential to cause trea...
