METHOD TO STUDY AND MECHANISMS OF BIOFILM-RELATED ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE

摘要

Disclosed are various genes encoding proteins that are shown to play a role, direct or indirect, in microbial resistance of an organism in a biofilm and homologs thereof. Also disclosed are methods of identifying a compound that modulates microbial resistance of an organism in a biofilm, and methods of identifying genes that encode proteins that play a role, direct or indirect, in biofilm resistance.
