Colistin-degrading proteases confer collective resistance to microbial communities during polymicrobial infections

BACKGROUND: The increasing prevalence of resistance against the last-resort antibiotic colistin is a significant threat to global public health. Here, we discovered a novel colistin resistance mechanism via enzymatic inactivation of the drug and proposed its clinical importance in microbial communit...
