Temperature-Induced Restructuring of Mycolic Acid Bilayers Modeling the <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> Outer Membrane: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Temperature-Induced Restructuring of Mycolic Acid Bilayers Modeling the <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> Outer Membrane: A Molecular Dynamics Study

The emergence of new drug-resistant strains of the tuberculosis pathogen <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> (Mtb) is a new challenge for modern medicine. Its resistance capacity is closely related to the properties of the outer membrane of the Mtb cell wall, which is a bilayer membrane fo...
