Abstract: Abstract Ion pairing between the major phospholipids of the Staphylococcus aureus plasma membrane (phosphatidylglycerol – PG and lysyl‐phosphatidylglycerol – LPG) confers resistance to antimicrobial peptides and other antibiotics. We developed 3adLPG, a stable synthetic analogue… read more here.
