Enzyme-mediated resistance to antibiotics: mechanisms, dissemination, and prospects for inhibition
Robert A. Bonomo, Marcelo E. Tolmasky
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria, or "superbugs," present an increasingly deadly threat to human health. With chapters from the world's leading researchers and scholars in this field, this comprehensive volume is a vital and timely overview of this critical subject.
Abstract: This book presents a state-of-the-art review of the mechanisms of resistance. The enzymes and enzyme systems detailed in this work include those involved in genetic reorganization, antibiotic modification and activation, antibiotic target modification, and antibiotic transport.
