Colistin Mechanism of Action
Description
This template shows the seven-step mechanism by which colistin kills bacteria, starting with binding to lipopolysaccharide in the outer membrane, displacing LPS, and damaging the outer membrane to access the periplasm. It continues through binding to LPS in the inner membrane, damaging the cytoplasmic membrane, releasing cytoplasmic contents, and ending in cell lysis.
