A Small Molecule Substrate Mimic to Inhibit Bacterial Hsp70 Chaperone Function

Given the rapid spread of antibiotic resistance worldwide, it is imperative to develop new strategies against pathogenic bacteria. Here, we report a small‐molecule inhibitor of bacterial heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), called DnaK, a central component of the bacterial protein chap...
