LpxT-Dependent Phosphorylation of Lipid A in Escherichia coli Increases Resistance to Deoxycholate and Enhances Gut Colonization
The cell surface of Gram-negative bacteria usually exhibits a net negative charge mostly conferred by lipopolysaccharides (LPS). This property sensitizes bacterial cells to cationic antimicrobial peptides, such as polymyxin B, by favoring their binding to the cell surface. Gram-negative bacteria can...
