Hypermutator strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveal novel pathways of resistance to combinations of cephalosporin antibiotics and beta-lactamase inhibitors.
Hypermutation due to DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiencies can accelerate the development of antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Whether hypermutators generate resistance through predominantly similar molecular mechanisms to wild-type (WT) strains is not fully understood. Here, we show...
