Active maintenance of proton motive force mediates starvation-induced bacterial antibiotic tolerance in Escherichia coli

The proton motive force (PMF) is a critical electrochemical gradient involved in bacterial energy metabolism. Here, Miaomiao Wang, Edward Wai Chi Chan et al. demonstrate that the PMF plays a key role in starvation-induced antibiotic tolerance in E. coli, suggesting that PMF disruption could be a fut...

description The proton motive force (PMF) is a critical electrochemical gradient involved in bacterial energy metabolism. Here, Miaomiao Wang, Edward Wai Chi Chan et al. demonstrate that the PMF plays a key role in starvation-induced antibiotic tolerance in E. coli, suggesting that PMF disruption could be a future strategy to treat bacterial infection.
