Environmental fatty acids enable emergence of infectious Staphylococcus aureus resistant to FASII-targeted antimicrobials
The bacterial pathway for fatty acid biosynthesis, FASII, is a target for development of new anti-staphylococcal drugs. Here, Morvan et al. show that exogenous fatty acids can favour the emergence of staphylococcal strains displaying resistance to multiple FASII inhibitors.
