Polymyxins Turn Cell Membranes Into Breakable Crystals

Healthcare, Medicine, Science /

To eliminate drug-resistant bacteria, “last-resort” antibiotics borrow a method from Medusa’s playbook: petrification. New high-resolution microscope pictures show that a class of antibiotics called polymyxins crystallizes bacteria’s cell membranes. The honeycomb-shaped crystals that form transform the microorganisms’ normally supple skins of fat molecules right into thin brittle sheets, researchers report October 21 in Nature Communications.
