Transient drug-tolerance and permanent drug-resistance rely on the trehalose-catalytic shift in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Trehalose metabolism has been linked to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) virulence and biofilm formation. Here, using a model of drug-tolerant persisters and metabolomics, the authors dissect the role of trehalose metabolism in Mtb persister formation, linking trehalose-catalytic shift to antibiotic...

Sumario: | Trehalose metabolism has been linked to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) virulence and biofilm formation. Here, using a model of drug-tolerant persisters and metabolomics, the authors dissect the role of trehalose metabolism in Mtb persister formation, linking trehalose-catalytic shift to antibiotic resistance. |
