Abstract
Epigenetic mechanisms attribute to the resistance and virulence of Acinetobacter baumannii sparking a renewed area of research. Unveiling the targets pertained to the epigenetic modulation in the bacterium would aid in the curbing its complications in various recalcitrant infections. This review thus throws light on the various epigenetic mechanisms exhibited by A. bauamnnii, urging the need to implement epigenetic based novel strategies in precision medicine.
