Abstract:
Genome sequencing and bioinformatics is driving the discovery of drug targets and development of novel classes of broad spectrum antimicrobial compounds. The analysis of the complete genome sequences of microorganism available in the public databases offers the first insights into the drug targets discovery. This review discusses the use of genomic information in the finding of target genes for antimicrobial drug discovery.
