Researchers at Penn recently discovered antibiotics derived from the secretions of frogs that can effectively kill bacteria ...

Even better, they discovered that lariocidin—named for its knotted, lasso-like chemical structure—has a unique mechanism of ...

Researchers created safe synthetic antibiotics from frog molecules. These may help fight superbugs in the future.

Both antibiotics tamper with bacteria's ability to make new proteins by specifically targeting their ribosomes. These molecular structures create proteins and are themselves made of proteins and ...
