gene encoding PEA transferase. Our results confirmed that MICs of polymyxin B and colistin for the wild-type were twice as high as those for the mutant. These results indicate that EcN can more efficiently colonize the intestine through PEA-mediated tolerance despite the presence of CAMPs in human gut such as human defensins. Thus, EcN can be used to help treat and prevent many GI disorders.
