Suppression of Drug Resistance in Bacteria by Mg2+ Reduction through Extracellular Adenosine Maurice Devaraj 10.6084/m9.figshare.96370.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Suppression_of_Drug_Resistance_in_Bacteria_by_Mg2_Reduction_through_Extracellular_Adenosine/96370 <p>This paper presents the effects of extracellular ATP, ADP, AMP, and adenosine on the occurrence of streptomycin resistance in E.coli.</p> <p><a></a>Results from this research show that extracellular ATP and adenosine decreased the occurrence of streptomycin resistant mutants, while extracellular ADP and AMP increased the occurrence of streptomycin resistant mutants. </p> <p>These compounds appear to influence the mutatability of E.coli for resistance to streptomycin by affecting the levels of Mg<sup>2+</sup> in the cell. </p> 2012-10-10 18:34:38 adenosine bacteria Drug Resistance magnesium mutation Mutation drug resistance Pharmacology Molecular Biology Microbiology Medicine
