Evolving Antibiotics against Resistance: a Potential Platform for Natural Product Development?
ABSTRACT To avoid an antibiotic resistance crisis, we need to develop antibiotics at a pace that matches the rate of evolution of resistance. However, the complex functions performed by antibiotics—combining, e.g., penetration of membranes, counteraction of resistance mechanisms, and interaction wit...
