A global regulatory system links virulence and antibiotic resistance to envelope homeostasis in Acinetobacter baumannii.
The nosocomial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is a significant threat due to its ability to cause infections refractory to a broad range of antibiotic treatments. We show here that a highly conserved sensory-transduction system, BfmRS, mediates the coordinate development of both enhanced virulence...
