Molecular, biochemical and pharmacological characterisation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis cytochrome bd-I oxidase : a putative therapeutic target

2013-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the most devastating diseases in humans. Nowadays, tuberculosis therapy is not sufficient to control the TB epidemic and only lasts for 6 months to cure patients and prevent relapse; therefore, the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is particularly challenging (1). New antibiotics, mainly those that are derived from new chemical classes, are more likely to be more effect...
