Porphyromonas gingivalis Resistance to Polymyxin B Is Determined by the Lipid A 4′-Phosphatase, PGN_0524

AIM: To elucidate the genetic basis for the pronounced resistance that the oral pathogen, Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), exhibits towards the cationic antimicrobial peptide, polymyxin B. METHODOLOGY: A genetic screen of P. gingivalis clones generated by a Tn4400′-based random insertion mu...
