Hfq Regulates Efflux Pump Expression and Purine Metabolic Pathway to Increase Trimethoprim Resistance in Aeromonas veronii

Aeromonas veronii (A. veronii) is a zoonotic pathogen. It causes clinically a variety of diseases such as dysentery, bacteremia, and meningitis, and brings huge losses to aquaculture. A. veronii has been documented as a multiple antibiotic resistant bacterium. Hfq (host factor for RNA bacteriophage...
