Discovery and Characterization of Polymyxin-Resistance Genes pmrE and pmrF from Sediment and Seawater Microbiome
ABSTRACT Polymyxins are the last-line antibiotics used to treat Gram-negative pathogens. Thus, the discovery and biochemical characterization of the resistance genes against polymyxins are urgently needed for diagnosis, treatment, and novel antibiotic design. Herein, we report novel polymyxin-resist...
