Ca(2+)-Daptomycin targets cell wall biosynthesis by forming a tripartite complex with undecaprenyl-coupled intermediates and membrane lipids
The lipopeptide daptomycin is used as an antibiotic to treat severe infections with gram-positive pathogens, such as methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and drug-resistant enterococci. Its precise mechanism of action is incompletely understood, and a specific molecular target has not...
