A role for the bacterial GATC methylome in antibiotic stress survival
2016
James Collins and colleagues explore the role of the bacterial epigenome in antibiotic stress survival. They find that Escherichia coli survival under antibiotic pressure is strongly compromised in the absence of adenine methylation at GATC sites, suggesting that targeting adenine methylation might be a viable approach to enhance antibiotic activity.
