High-throughput screening for novel inhibitors of Neisseria gonorrhoeae penicillin-binding protein 2.
The increasing prevalence of N. gonorrhoeae strains exhibiting decreased susceptibility to third-generation cephalosporins and the recent isolation of two distinct strains with high-level resistance to cefixime or ceftriaxone heralds the possible demise of β-lactam antibiotics as effective treatment...
