Repurposing PFM01 as a novel antibacterial agent against Staphylococcus aureus

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus infections pose a significant threat to global human health, particularly with the widespread transmission of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains, which has created an urgent need for the development of new antimicrobial agents. PFM01 is an N-alkylated derivative of Mirin, an M...
