Human Pleural Fluid Elicits Pyruvate and Phenylalanine Metabolism in Acinetobacter baumannii to Enhance Cytotoxicity and Immune Evasion [PDF]
The CCAAT box-harboring proteins represent a family of heterotrimeric transcription factors which is highly conserved in eukaryotes. In fungi, one of the particularly important homologs of this family is the Hap complex that separates the DNA-binding ...

The pmrCAB Operon Mediates Polymyxin Resistance In Acinetobacter Baumannii ATCC 17978 And Clinical Isolates Through Phosphoethanolamine Modification Of Lipid A [PDF]
The emergence of multidrug resistance among Acinetobacter baumannii is leading to an increasing dependence on the use of polymyxins as last-hope antibiotics. Here, we utilized genetic and biochemical methods to define the involvement of the pmrCAB operon

The Transcriptomic Signature of Tigecycline in Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
Tigecycline, a protein translation inhibitor, is a treatment of last resort for infections caused by the opportunistic multidrug resistance human pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii. However, strains resistant to tigecycline were reported not long after its clinical introduction.

Insights into Acinetobacter baumannii pathogenicity [PDF]
AbstractAcinetobacter spp. have justifiably received significant attention from the public, scientific, and medical communities. Over recent years, Acinetobacter, particularly Acinetobacter baumannii, has become a “red‐alert” human pathogen, primarily because of its exceptional ability to develop resistance to all currently available antibiotics.
