American Society of Microbiology - 100th General Meeting.
Symposium sessions on genomics, surveillance, and pharmaceutical intervention opportunities were highlights of this annual ASM meeting. Two-component signal transduction was highlighted by both academic and industrial representatives, as was prokaryotic genomics. Recurring themes throughout the meeting were the contribution of efflux mechanisms to worldwide resistance, target modifications responsible for fluoroquinolone resistance, and the role of structural biology in the discovery and exploitation of bacterial targets.
