Identifying the Novel Inhibitors Against the Mycolic Acid Biosynthesis Pathway Target “mtFabH” of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Mycolic acids are the key constituents of mycobacterial cell wall, which protect the bacteria from antibiotic susceptibility, helping to subvert and escape from the host immune system. Thus, the enzymes involved in regulating and biosynthesis of mycolic acids can be explored as potential drug target...
