Sumario:Henrique Machado et al. describe mutational mechanisms associated with MRSA vancomycin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus using adaptive laboratory evolution experiments focused on tolerance. Their results reveal environment-dependent mutational strategies to vancomycin tolerization and the impact of mutations in regulatory genes, providing insight into the development of antibiotic resistance under multiple conditions.
