Whole genome sequencing (WGS) potentially represents a rapid approach for antimicrobial resistance genotype-to-phenotype prediction. However, the challenge still exists to predict fully minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and antimicrobial susce...
Pathogenic gram-negative bacteria frequently carry genes encoding extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and/or carbapenemases. Of great concern are carbapenem resistant , , and . Despite the need for rapid AMR diagnostics globally, current molecu...
The ESKAPE family, comprising Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter spp., poses a significant global threat due to their heightened virulence and extensiv...

, a notable drug-resistant bacterium, often induces severe infections in healthcare settings, prompting a deeper exploration of treatment alternatives due to escalating carbapenem resistance. This study meticulously examined clinical, microbiological...
UNLABELLED: Global challenges presented by multidrug-resistant infections have stimulated the development of new treatment strategies. We reported that outer membrane protein W (OmpW) is a potential therapeutic target in . Here, a library of 11,648 ...
Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial Gram-negative pathogen that often displays multidrug resistance. Discovering new antibiotics against A. baumannii has proven challenging through conventional screening approaches. Fortunately, machine learning ...
The de novo design of antimicrobial therapeutics involves the exploration of a vast chemical repertoire to find compounds with broad-spectrum potency and low toxicity. Here, we report an efficient computational method for the generation of antimicrob...
