Molecular mechanisms of drug resistance in natural Leishmania populations vary with genetic background [PDF]
The evolution of drug-resistance in pathogens is a major global health threat. Elucidating the molecular basis of pathogen drug-resistance has been the focus of many studies but rarely is it known whether a drug-resistance mechanism identified is ...

In the field study many types of drug-resistant E. coli, Shigella and Citrobacter were isolated by this laboratory. And seven types of transmissible drug-resistance factor were obtained; R(TC) R(SM), R(CM. TC), R(SM. SA), R(CM. SM SA), R(TC. SM. SA) and R(CM. TC.SM. SA). The R(CM) factor was segregated from (CM.

Can We Prevent Antimicrobial Resistance by Using Antimicrobials Better? [PDF]
Since their development over 60 years ago, antimicrobials have become an integral part of healthcare practice worldwide. Recently, this has been put in jeopardy by the emergence of widespread antimicrobial resistance, which is one of the major problems ...

Expression of DNA Gyrase at mRNA Levels and Antibacterial Effect of FluoroquinoloneDerived Compounds on Two Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria; Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis [PDF]
Introduction: Fluoroquinolones are a form of antibiotics capable of influencing DNA Gyrase of bacteria. Any alteration in the structure of current fluoroquinolone antibacterials may provide a better effect on the growth inhibition of bacteria.

KvarQ: targeted and direct variant calling from fastq reads of bacterial genomes [PDF]
High-throughput DNA sequencing produces vast amounts of data, with millions of short reads that usually have to be mapped to a reference genome or newly assembled.
