Hoisted by Their Own Petard: Defeating Immunity Protein–Mediated Bacteriocin Resistance

2025-10-23

Abstract excerpt

The irresponsible use of antibiotics has led to an erratic spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) among bacterial pathogens. Without intervention, 10 million AMR-related deaths per year by 2050 are estimated by the WHO. Nonetheless, the development of novel antibiotics has almost come to a halt. In this context, naturally occurring narrow-spectrum antimicrobial proteins, known as bacteriocins, are promising alte...
