Abstract excerpt
Proteins of the independent mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis are important targets for the development of new antibacterial compounds as this pathway is present in most pathogenic organisms such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, DPlasmodium falciparum and Escherichia coli, but is not present in mammalian species, including humans. Deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR) is an important...
