| Published in? When (if mentioned) ? | Nature, 2019 |
| General topic? | New antibiotic for fighting antiobacteria resistance by the discovery of a new peptide |
| Procedure/what was examined? | Searchers has discovered a peptide called Darobactin, who’s a chain of 7 aminoacid. There are linked unexpectionally. This is not toxic for cells, so it can be use to create antibiotic. Moreover a new weak point has been discovered by this peptide causing a disturbance on external membrane of Gram negative bacteria. |
| Conclusions/discovery? | Darobactin works very well against infection, even if it is antibiotic-resistance. It is a promising substance for new development of antibiotic. |
| Remaining questions? | / |
