Researchers describe a fundamental mechanism of antibiotic resistance. What happens in a bacterium that is resistant to the antibiotic fusidic acid? With a stop-motion movie at the atomic level, they ...
In an article published in Nature Communications, researchers from Uppsala Antibiotic Center, Uppsala University and SciLifeLab describe a fundamental mechanism of antibiotic resistance. What happens ...
Scientists uncovered how the resistance protein FusB deflects fusidic acid in bacteria, using atomic-level imaging to reveal a crowbar-like resistance mechanism. Antibiotic resistance is a global ...
Antibiotics firm Cempra reported positive topline data from a U.S. Phase III study evaluating its oral fusidic acid candidate against acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). The ...
Background. Fusidic acid (FA) has been used for decades for bone infection, including prosthetic joint infection (PJI), often in combination with rifampin (RIF). An FA/RIF pharmacokinetic interaction ...
