摘要
TB or not TB active: The high-resolution crystal structures (see picture) of the zinccontaining metalloenzyme nicotinamidase in complex with nicotinic acid and pyrazinoic acid reveal new aspects of enzyme mechanism that help to explain the activation of a front-line anti-tuberculosis (TB) drug. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
