Saskemycin, a potent and selective antimycobacterial agent targeting a unique site on the ribosome

2025-11-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Tuberculosis is the deadliest bacterial disease on the planet. The months-long regimen of multiple antibiotics required to treat tuberculosis profoundly affects the microbiome and leads to the development of antimicrobial resistance. Furthermore, non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections pose an increasing clinical challenge. Consequently, there is a growing need for new narrow-spectrum...
