Understanding the chemical scaffold and functional group structures of the major classes of clinically useful antibiotics is critical to understanding how antibiotics interact selectively with bacterial targets.AntibioticsDrug resistance in microorganismsElectronic books.Antibiotics.Drug resistance in microorganisms.615.329Walsh Christopher514842Wencewicz Timothy A.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910555016503321Antibiotics2820915UNINA
