Crowdsourcing for mining new fungal sources for addressing the need for novel antibiotics against multidrug resistant pathogens
There are a limited number of new antibiotics to manage the health crisis caused by the evolution and spread of antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacteria including multidrug resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR) and pan-drug-resistant (PDR) ones. Bioprospecting fungi of less studied and extreme environments using new and less used older approaches could reveal novel antibiotics to manage MDR pathogens. Furthermore, I posit a crowdsourcing model which could substantially increase the chances of discovering novel antibiotics as well as new chemotypes for other therapeutic areas and considerably reduce the cost and time of this exercise.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Antibiotics seeks to promote research on antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances and publishes Articles, Review Articles, Brief Communication, Correspondence and other specially commissioned reports. The Journal of Antibiotics accepts papers on biochemical, chemical, microbiological and pharmacological studies. However, studies regarding human therapy do not fall under the journal’s scope. Contributions regarding recently discovered antibiotics and biologically active microbial products are particularly encouraged. Topics of particular interest within the journal''s scope include, but are not limited to, those listed below:
Discovery of new antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Production, isolation, characterization, structural elucidation, chemical synthesis and derivatization, biological activities, mechanisms of action, and structure-activity relationships of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Biosynthesis, bioconversion, taxonomy and genetic studies on producing microorganisms, as well as improvement of production of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Novel physical, chemical, biochemical, microbiological or pharmacological methods for detection, assay, determination, structural elucidation and evaluation of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Newly found properties, mechanisms of action and resistance-development of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances.
