Unfortunately we detected a LOT of heteroresistance to cefepime-taniborbactam among metallo-beta-lactamase encoding CRE (29/34 strains). Worse - most of it undetected by standard testing. Congrats @abbott_carter on your hard work and these important data. Thanks @TheLancetInfDisView quoted post on X

New! Gram- cells need lipoproteins to build their surface. LolA & LolB deliver these in E.coli. But many species only have LolA - where's LolB? For Caulobacter, LolB is... LolA! It's a bifunctional protein! We can even tweak E.coli LolA to do double duty! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…View quoted post on X

Congrats to our own @jake_choby, @tugba6ozturk, @abbott_carter, @SarahSatola, @DWeissLab on this important study on the way antibiotic #heteroresistance threatens the beta-lactam pipeline.
