Adaptation and compensation in a bacterial gene regulatory network evolving under antibiotic selection

1. Vishwa Patel
2. Nishad Matange

• Curated by eLife

  Evaluation Summary:

  This paper investigates the evolutionary path of Escherichia coli resistance to the antibiotic trimethoprim. The authors show that adaptive mutations that accumulate early are often not in the drug target itself, but rather mutations that lead to transcriptional up-regulation of the drug target. Higher-level resistance can then evolve due to the addition of mutations in the drug target; however, at lower drug concentrations, cells are more likely to accumulate mutations that reverse the fitness defect associated with the initially acquired mutations. Overall, this study shows that regulatory mutations can play a major role in the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacterial populations, and that the evolutionary path is influenced by the level of drug exposure.
