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

They found a new molecule named lariocidin —a potential new antibiotic with the power to kill some of the world’s most ...

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

Lariocidin is a newly discovered antibiotic from soil bacteria. It targets the bacterial ribosome, defeating resistant ...

Gerry Wright, a biochemist at McMaster University who led the research, says lariocidin was found in a bacteria called Paenibacillus that was “cultivated from a soil sample that we obtained here ...

The new molecule, called lariocidin, works by targeting a part of a bacteria’s cell called the ribosome and can disrupt the cell’s functions. “This is a new molecule with a new mode of action.

Even better, they discovered that lariocidin—named for its knotted, lasso-like chemical structure—has a unique mechanism of ...
