Natural products serve as chemical blueprints for most antibiotics in clinical use. The evolutionary process by which these molecules arise is inherently accompanied by the co-evolution of resistance mechanisms that shorten the clinical lifetime of any given class of antibiotics<sup>1</sup>. Virginiamycin acetyltransferase (Vat) enzymes are resistance proteins that provide protection against streptogramins<sup>2</sup>, potent antibiotics against Gram-positive bacteria that inhibit the bacterial  ...[more]
