Thermal Protein Profiling May Offer New Insights on Antibiotic Resistance

Scientists from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) say they have adapted an existing technique to study the melting behavior of proteins so that it can be used for the study of bacteria. Antibiotic resistance is spreading worldwide so there is a strong need for new technologies to study bacteria, according to the researchers who published their study (“ Thermal proteome profiling in bacteria: probing protein state in vivo ”)  in  Molecular
