A team from CIRAD, in collaboration with the Technical University of Berlin, recently characterized the structure of albicidin, an antibiotic produced by bacterial pathogen of sugarcane. This powerful antibiotic has been shown to be active against difficult-to-treat bacteria, and even those responsible for hospital-acquired infections. Its structure and mode of action make it a novel, highly promising molecule.
