That process led to the group discovering a lasso peptide that exhibited broad-spectrum antibiotic activity and was effective at killing both gram-positive and gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, along ...

Bacteria can easily evolve, and can quickly gain resistance to drugs. Drug-resistant bacterial infections already cause the deaths of millions ... | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

Amid a surge in drug-resistant bacteria, researchers believe they have discovered a new class of antibiotics, three decades since the last one came to market.

The study reveals lariocidin, a potent ribosome-targeting antibiotic, with unique mechanisms that could combat drug-resistant ...

A team of researchers from McMaster University has identified a new molecule – lariocidin – that can challenge some of the most drug-resistant bacteria on Earth. The discovery responds to a critical ...

Lariocidin hits drug-resistant bacteria where others fail — by hijacking the ribosome at a new site, bypassing defences, and opening the door to a new generation of antibiotics. Lariocidin ...

A team led by renowned researcher Gerry Wright has identified a strong candidate to challenge even some of the most drug-resistant bacteria on the planet: a new molecule called lariocidin.

Lariocidin was efficient against strains of E. coli, including drug-resistant ones, according to the new study.

Lariocidin, a peptide made by bacteria living in soil, was effective against several different microbes responsible for deadly infections. UIC researchers working with collaborators at McMaster ...
