Bacteria reveal 'glue' protein that fastens antibiotic-resistant outer membrane to cell wall

Researchers at the University of Notre Dame and collaborators have discovered a key process in how the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria attaches to the cell wall, advancing the understanding of how these bacteria frequently develop resistance to antibiotics.
