Nonlocal Effects of Antibiotic-Resistance-Causing Mutations Reveal an Alternative Region for Targeting on FtsW-Penicillin-Binding Protein 3 Complex of Haemophilus influenzae.

Abstract excerpt

Currently prescribed antibiotics target the catalytic sites of wild-type bacterial proteins; however, bacteria adopt mutations at this site, eventually leading to the emergence of resistance. Therefore, the identification of alternative drug binding sites is crucial, which requires knowledge of the dynamics of the mutant protein. Here, we set out to investigate the impact of a high-resistance-causing triple...
