Fighting Fire with Fire: Computational Prediction of Microbial Targets for Bacteriocins. |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
Recently, we have witnessed the emergence of bacterial strains resistant to all known antibacterials. Due to several limitations of existing experimental methods, these events justify the need of computer-aided methods to systematically and rationally identify new antibacterial agents. Here, we propose a methodology for the systematic prediction of interactions between bacteriocins and bacterial protein targets. The protein-bacteriocin interactions are predicted using a mesh of classifiers previously developed by the authors, allowing the identification of the best bacteriocin candidates for antibiotic use and potential drug targets. |
