Targeting synthesis of the Chromosome Replication Initiator Protein DnaA by antisense PNA-peptide conjugates in Escherichia coli
Initiation of chromosome replication is an essential stage of the bacterial cell cycle that is controlled by the DnaA protein. With the aim of developing novel antimicrobials, we have targeted the initiation of DNA replication, using antisense peptide nucleic acids (PNAs), directed against DnaA tran...
