🚨New preprint on bioRxiv!🚨
We set out to investigate whether multidrug efflux pumps influence phage infection in Acinetobacter baumannii. What we found was not what we expected. The answer was hiding in the bacterial capsule.

New in JB: Janet-Maitre & Feldman review how Acinetobacter baumannii, in the absence of many classical virulence factors, uses “persist and resist” strategy, including genomic and metabolic flexibility, to cause disease.

New research shows Acinetobacter baumannii uses gene amplification — not just antibiotic resistance — to thrive inside human hosts. The adaptation boosts survival but surprisingly reduces antibiotic resistance, revealing a key evolutionary trade-off. #Microbiology #Superbug
