Antibiotic Resistance: Photo‐Disassembly of Membrane Microdomains Revives Conventional Antibiotics against MRSA (Adv. Sci. 6/2020)
In article number 1903117, Ji‐Xin Cheng and co‐workers report an endogenous chromophore‐based phototherapy platform to combat antibiotic‐resistance Staphylococcus aureus infections. Functional membrane microdomains of Staphylococcus aureus are catastrophically disrupted via photochemical decomposition of membrane‐bound carotenoid pigment, staphyloxanthin, thus reviving a broad spectrum of conventional antibiotics against Staphylococcus aureus.

Keeping up-to-date with research can feel impossible, with papers being published faster than you'll ever be able to read them. That's where Researcher comes in: we're simplifying discovery and making important discussions happen. With over 19,000 sources, including peer-reviewed journals, preprints, blogs, universities, podcasts and Live events across 10 research areas, you'll never miss what's important to you. It's like social media, but better. Oh, and we should mention - it's free.
Researcher displays publicly available abstracts and doesn’t host any full article content. If the content is open access, we will direct clicks from the abstracts to the publisher website and display the PDF copy on our platform.
