Description:
Article A few bacterial cells within a genetically homogeneous population can become ‘persisters’, or temporarily tolerant to antibiotics. Here Orman and Brynildsen show that development of persisters among growth-arrested E. coli cells can be prevented by inhibiting bacterial respiration.
