Understanding mechanisms of antibiotic resistance is important to the fields of biology and medicine. We find that glutathione contributes to antibiotic resistance in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Our results also suggest that glutathione protects photosystem I from oxidative damage resulting from growth in the presence of gentamicin.
了解抗生素耐药性的机制对于生物学和医学领域非常重要。我们发现谷胱甘肽有助于蓝藻 Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 的抗生素耐药性。我们的结果还表明,谷胱甘肽可以保护光系统 I 免受庆大霉素存在下生长引起的氧化损伤。
