Antibiotic Resistance

AbstractResistance to antibiotics has created a state of crisis in clinics for treatment of infections. Historically, the majority of known classes of antibiotics have come from natural sources, examples of which are macrolides,β‐lactams, and aminoglycosides, among others. They target vital bacterial biochemical events, such as cell wall synthesis, protein synthesis, and DNA replication. A description of these process is provided herein. Furthermore, resistance to known antibiotics has emerged by a multitude of mechanisms, a subject that has been elaborated in this article in detail.
