Abstract

Acinetobacter baumannii causes antimicrobial-resistant infections. Asymptomatic gut colonization increases infection risk, yet little is known about how A. baumanii persists. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Ren and Clark et al. establish a murine model to define how amino acid metabolism shapes long-term A. baumannii colonization.
