This topic is quite interesting and applicable to many topics in medicine today. Your introduction and conclusion are both very strong. In the introduction, though, I would maybe introduce the last sentence of the first paragraph before you talk about the glycylcycline-class of antibiotics (sentence 3)? I would also be interested in seeing a picture of the Bhattacharya (2009) class of antibiotics. The three papers you discuss are also quite strong. However, you talk about the structure and binding of tigecycline to the ribosome a lot in the first two topics. Could you tie the third topic into your first two a little more succinctly? How exactly does the structure and tight binding ability of tigecycline relate to the efflux pumps transcribed in tet-resistance bacteria? Overall, a neat topic with lots of implications!
