Our review on disulfide formation is out! Since the discovery the DSB system ~35 years ago, we have made great steps in understanding its role in processes like virulence and #AMR. In loving memory of my supervisor Stuart Ferguson. @nikikaderabkova Link: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Not long ago, discovering antibiotics meant painstakingly purifying compounds from sources like soil—a process longer than earning a PhD, often with limited success. Years ago, we envisioned that by treating biology as an information source and mining it with advanced algorithms, we could revolutionize antibiotic discovery. In my @PLOSBiology article, I summarize our progress over the past 5+ years. Today, my lab can discover hundreds of thousands of new antibiotic molecules in just a few hours—on a computer.
The rise of #AntibioticResistance calls for innovative solutions; @delafuentelab outlines how biology can be mined digitally using #ArtificialIntelligence as a new paradigm for antibiotic discovery, offering hope in the fight against superbugs #PLOSBiology plos.io/3B3rWP8

According to @IHME_UW, 28% of the global burden of disease is due to infections and 14% to bacterial infections. New #antibiotics are urgently needed to combat these infections! amr.solutions/2024/04/29/ram…
