Eric Walker added The spread of antibiotic resistance is partly due to the ability of bacteria to pick up DNA from their surroundings. Study shows that drugs blocking this ability (which is called 'competence') in the bacterium S. pneumoniae can stop the spread of resistance in mice. : science to 2020-03 Proton Motive Force Disruptors Block Bacterial Competence and Horizontal Gene Transfer
