Cationic glycosylated block co-β-peptide acts on the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria as anti-biofilm agents
Antimicrobial resistance is a global threat. In addition to the emergence of resistance to last resort drugs, bacteria escape antibiotics killing by forming complex biofilms. Strategies to tackle antibiotic resistance as well as biofilms are urgently needed. Wall teichoic acid (WTA), a generic anion...
