Protein waste turned into antibiotics as a defence strategy of human cells
Nature, Published online: 05 March 2025; doi:10.1038/d41586-025-00514-4As well as degrading proteins, the proteosome surprisingly also functions in human defence against bacterial infection. By changing how proteins are cleaved, this system generates antibiotic peptides on demand.
