The PitA protein contributes to colistin susceptibility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that causes a wide range of problematic infections in individuals with predisposing conditions. Infections can be treated with colistin but some isolates are resistant to this antibiotic. To better understand the genetic basis of resistance, we exp...
