Catalytic mechanism of the colistin resistance protein MCR-1

The mcr-1 gene encodes a membrane-bound Zn(2+)-metalloenzyme, MCR-1, which catalyses phosphoethanolamine transfer onto bacterial lipid A, making bacteria resistant to colistin, a last-resort antibiotic. Mechanistic understanding of this process remains incomplete. Here, we investigate possible catal...
