Targeting intracellular nontuberculous mycobacteria and M. tuberculosis with a bactericidal enzymatic cocktail

ABSTRACTTo address intracellular mycobacterial infections, we developed a cocktail of four enzymes that catalytically attack three layers of the mycobacterial envelope. This cocktail is delivered to macrophages, through a targeted liposome presented here as ENTX_001. Endolytix Cocktail 1 (EC1) lever...
