Image Gallery: Crystals of CCD-1 in complex with cefotaxime

ID
6764
CCD-1 is an enzyme produced by the bacterium Clostridioides difficile that helps it resist antibiotics. Here, researchers crystallized bound pairs of CCD-1 molecules and molecules of the antibiotic cefotaxime. This enabled their structure to be studied using X-ray crystallography.
