Superbacteria carry new gene that makes them resist all antibacterials

Descripción del Articulo

A group of Chinese scientists have found a new gene in gram negative bacteria, the MCR-1. This gene has given pathogenic bacteria resistance to colistin, which is the antibacterial that medical doctors use as last line of defense against multi-drug resistant infections. Superbacteria with MCR-1 will...

Este gen ha sido responsable de otorgarle resistencia a estas bacterias patógenas ante la colistina, el antibacteriano que los médicos emplean como última arma para combatir ciertas infecciones multi-resistentes. Con este gen, las superbacterias serán potencialmente epidémicas y las enfermedades que se creían controladas, como la neumonía, la tuberculosis y las infecciones del tracto urinario, podrían ser nuevamente letales.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2016-10-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/quimica/article/view/15351Revista de Química; Vol. 30 Núm. 1-2 (2016); 7-112518-28031012-3946reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/quimica/article/view/15351/15818Derechos de autor 2016 Revista de Químicahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistaspuc:article/153512022-02-08T16:01:56Z
