A new molecule, lariocidin, offers hope in the fight against antimicrobial resistance, killing drug-resistant bacteria with a ...

Researchers discovered lariocidin, a lasso peptide antibiotic that kills multidrug-resistant bacteria by binding a novel ...

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 ...

The molecule was found in soil samples collected from a laboratory technician’s garden. The discovery shows that “there is ...
