Nano-NucleOTAC-mediated Z-DNA transformation disrupts mycobacterium tuberculosis biofilms and activates antibacterial immunity

The biofilms of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (Mtb) use extracellular DNA (eDNA) as a protective structural scaffold that shields resident bacteria from host immunity and antibiotics, promoting persistent infection. An FDA-approved DNase can partially hydrolyze eDNA but has limited...
