Translation elongation factor EF-P drives susceptibility to fluoroquinolone antibiotics in Bacillus subtilis
Madison Ahmed, Rodney Tollerson, Kevin S. Lang
This study shows that loss of EF-P increases survival of Bacillus subtilis to fluoroquinolones, highlighting EF-P's role in susceptibility through post-translational modification and interaction with DNA repair pathways.
