Macrocycle peptides delineate locked-open inhibition mechanism for microorganism phosphoglycerate mutases
River blindness, a disease affecting millions throughout the tropics, is caused by parasitic worms. Here, Yuet al. report the discovery and structural characterization of potent macrocyclic peptide inhibitors of iPGM, a nematode-specific phosphoglycerate mutase, as potential leads for novel antimicr...
