Brown University: In a series of laboratory experiments, the researchers have shown that it is possible to kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis by inhibiting ClpP, a cellular enzyme that is not targeted by any antibacterial drug on the market. The work is preliminary, but the researchers are hopeful it could point the way to new drugs to treat tuberculosis and other infections that are becoming resistant to traditional antibiotics. |
