A Common Platform for Antibiotic Dereplication and Adjuvant Discovery

Solving the antibiotic resistance crisis requires the discovery of new antimicrobial drugs and the preservation of existing ones. The discovery of inhibitors of antibiotic resistance, antibiotic adjuvants, is a proven example of the latter. A major difficulty in identifying new antibiotics is the frequent rediscovery of known compounds, necessitating laborious "dereplication" to identify novel chemical entities. We have developed an antibiotic …
