The overuse of antibiotics to control bacterial pathogens leads to the generation of their antibiotic-resistant strains including Edwardsiella tarda. Understanding of mechanisms of the antibiotic resistance is crucial to develop novel methods to manage the infection. Here, two-dimensional electrophoresis-based proteomics was used to characterize balofloxacin-responsive proteins.

Here, we hypothesize that the innate immune response to pathogens is attributed into a group of functional proteins. The group contains information on host status post bacterial entry (infection or immunity) and bacterial species (Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria).

To date, little is known about the protein interactions and roles of the protein interacting networks and protein complexes in bacterial resistance to antibiotics. In the present study, we investigated protein complexes in Escherichia coli exposed to an antibiotic balofloxacin (BLFX).
