Loss of phenotypic inheritance associated with ydcI mutation leads to increased frequency of small, slow persisters in Escherichia coli

Scientists 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 identified mutations which lead to bacteria 🦠 having an increased tendency to 'forget' how to grow normally. This leads to an increased number of persisters, contributing to the development of antimicrobial resistance. #AMR #Resear…
