Discovery of novel MDR-Mycobacterium tuberculosis inhibitor by new FRIGATE computational screen.

With 1.6 million casualties annually and 2 billion people being infected, tuberculosis is still one of the most pressing healthcare challenges. Here we report on the new computational docking algorithm FRIGATE which unites continuous local optimization techniques (conjugate gradient method) with an...
