Now in Chem Sci! 🎉
We investigated how #enzymes in the #nonribosomal #biosynthesis of life-saving #peptide #antibiotics can be engineered.
Assuming that #promiscuity serves as a springboard for #evolution, we measured the specificity profiles of hundreds of mutants. The results revealed remarkable shifts in substrate specificity in multiple directions, highlighting the evolutionary potential of these enzymes and leading the way for engineering antibiotic biosynthesis.

🧬 Stone Age bacteria for the medicine of the future?

A fascinating @MDRWISSEN feature explores how our researchers at @LeibnizHKI are reviving ancient DNA from #microbes from Neanderthal teeth to discover new antibiotics that could possibly be used as drugs in the future!

🦠 Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a growing problem. Can ‘bacteria-eaters’ help? A research team at #ChariteBerlin has now succeeded in training bacteriophages – viruses that ‘eat’ bacteria – in such a way that they can better combat the pathogen P. aeruginosa even behind its protective shield, the biofilm.

Because #PhageTherapy is still in its infancy: Please use #antibiotics cautiously!

#CancerPatients are confronting widespread #shortages of #chemotherapy #drugs
Doctors, scrambling to find the medications, are having to delay #lifesaving #therapies At the end of last year, there were 295 active medication shortages, ranging from #antibiotics and #anesthetics to #cardiac mediations and chemotherapy drugs, according to a Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs report, https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/Drug-Shortages-HSGAC-Majority-Staff-Report-2023-03-22.pdf a 30% increase since 2021. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2023/06/05/cancer-drug-shortages/ #medicalemergency
