Development of Antibiotics That Dysregulate the Neisserial ClpP Protease

Abstract excerpt

Evolving antimicrobial resistance has motivated the search for novel targets and alternative therapies. Caseinolytic protease (ClpP) has emerged as an enticing new target since its function is conserved and essential for bacterial fitness, and because its inhibition or dysregulation leads to bacterial cell death. ClpP protease function controls global protein homeostasis and is, therefore, crucial for the...
