Investigating bacteria behind hospital infections with SMART Designs Tool – Health Europa
A new tool has been developed using SMART CRISPRi technology which is designed to help identify and tackle causes of E. faecalis-related diseases and drug resistance….
Researchers from the Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Interdisciplinary Research Group (IRG) at Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), MITs research enterprise in Singapore, and Nanyang Technological University (NTU), have developed the tool to understand and prevent biofilm development, drug resistance, and other physiological behaviours of bacteria such as Enterococcus faecalis.
In the paper published in the journal mBio, the researchers explain the scalable dual-vector nisin-inducible…
