Method and kit for detection of novel pathogen inhibitors

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for detection of novel pathogen inhibitors using models of pathogen specific, and metal binding structures/domains representing essential cellular molecules. The method enables identification of inhibitors that bind to any specific RNA molecule or protein that are essential for cell growth, proliferation and differentiation. The invention also relates to a kit for use in the method. Furthermore, the invention relates to use of aminoglycosides in the development of new drugs.
