Regulation of Osmotic Stress by OmpC but not OmpF Increases Kanamycin Resistance in Escherichia coli

Changing the ratio of outer membrane proteins, OmpF and OmpC, is a mechanism by which Escherichia coli are able to develop antibiotic resistance. Osmotic stress is known to affect the outer membrane protein ratio by increasing OmpC and decreasing OmpF expression. Our study assess...
