Title: System and method for combating mycobacterium tuberculosis infections
Inventor: MANDE SHARMILA SHEKHAR
IPC: C12Q1/689
Filed: 2020-06-04
Abstract: Mycobacterium tuberculosis  is the most common pathogenic agent responsible for tuberculosis (TB) infection. Over a period of time, the methods used for combating TB have become more challenging by the prevalence of multi-drug resistant and extensively drug resistant strains. The disclosure relates generally to method and system for combating infections due to  Mycobacterium tuberculosis . The system provides strategies to combat pathogenic infections caused by multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The strategy involves identifying potential target sites in a pathogen, which can be utilized to compromise its multiple virulence or essential functions at the same time.
