Comprehensive Essential Gene Identification as a Platform for Novel Antiinfective Drug Discovery

Abstract excerpt

In large part, antimicrobial drug discovery is driven by the breadth and quality of both potential drug targets and available chemical libraries to screen. Traditionally, targets have been few in number and have been limited to those with known function, from which biochemical assays could be implemented into drug screens. Iterations of this same basic approach, applied to a few biochemically-defined targets have...
