The Gram-negative permeability barrier: tipping the balance of the in and the out
C Maher, KA Hassan - Mbio, 2023 - Am Soc Microbiol
Gram-negative bacteria are intrinsically resistant to many antibiotics, due in large part to the
permeability barrier formed by their cell envelope. The complex and synergistic interplay of …
