Complex effects of macrolide venturicidins on bacterial F-ATPases likely contribute to their action as antibiotic adjuvants
Abstract Bacterial energy metabolism is now recognized as a critical factor for the efficacy of antibiotics. The F-type ATPase/ATP synthase (FOF1) is a central player in cellular bioenergetics of bacteria and eukaryotes, and its potential as a selective antibiotic target has been confirmed by the su...
