Hydration and hydrolysis define antibiotic resistance conferred by macrolide esterases

2026-03-25

Abstract excerpt

Macrolides are an antibiotic class widely used in both human and veterinary medicine, and function by interfering with protein synthesis. Regrettably, numerous strategies for evading the antibiotic properties of macrolides have been found in bacteria, including enzyme-mediated inactivation. These mechanisms are now widely disseminated among pathogenic, animal-associated and environmental bacteria making them a One...
