Abstract

New drugs are urgently required to combat the tuberculosis epidemic that claims 1.5 million lives annually. Inhibitors of mycobacterial energy metabolism have shown significant promise clinically; however, further advancing this nascent target space requires a more fundamental understanding of the respiratory enzymes and pathways used by Mycobacterium tuberculosis .
