Delayed antibiotic exposure induces population collapse in enterococcal communities with drug-resistant subpopulations

eLife, 2020
The molecular underpinnings of antibiotic resistance are increasingly understood, but less is known about how these molecular events influence microbial dynamics on the population scale. Here, we show that the dynamics of E.

Pathogenicity of Enterococci

Nippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 2017
Enterococci belong to the group of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and inhabit the gastrointestinal tracts of a wide variety of animals from insects and to human, and the commensal organism in humans and animals. The commensal/probiotic role of enterococci has evolved through thousands of years in mutual coexistence. Enterococcus have many favorable traits
