    • Abstract:
      The article discusses research from the University of Illinois in Chicago, Illinois (UIC) that indicates that some bacteria are able to resist antibiotics. UIC professor Alexander Mankin commented that some bacteria activate genes to resist antibiotics upon detecting erythromycin and other macrolide antibiotics, which halt the movement of proteins in ribosomes.
