Scientists from Brown University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology have come up with new strategies in order to beat tuberculosis. Over the past few years, a class of compounds called ADEPs had emerged as a promising new weapon in the fight against drug-resistant bacteria. The compounds work by attaching themselves to a cellular enzyme called ClpP, which bacterial cells use to rid themselves of harmful proteins. With an ADEP attached, ClpP can't function ...Tuesday, 30 September 2014
