Barriers to tuberculosis drug discovery: the mycobacterial cell wall by Whittaker, Caitlin

“…This presents a potentially novel form of intrinsic resistance whereby stripping of the cell wall could allow for tolerance to cell wall active antibiotics, a previously under-appreciated strategy that has been reported in other pathogenic bacteria. Together, these findings highlight the highly dynamic nature of the mycobacterial cell envelope and the need for further investigation into the properties of this structure that allow for such efficient antibiotic evasion.…”
