The frontline antibiotic vancomycin induces a zinc starvation response in bacteria by binding to Zn(II)
Vancomycin is a front-line antibiotic used for the treatment of nosocomial infections, particularly those caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Despite its clinical importance the global effects of vancomycin exposure on bacterial physiology are poorly understood. In a previous tran...
