US Patent:
20050119302, Jun 2, 2005
Filed:
Oct 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/493989

International Classification:
A61K031/47
US Classification:
514312000
Abstract:
The present invention features improved methods for treating, stabilizing, or preventing a bacterial or a fungal infection in a plant or an animal, such as a mammal. In particular, these methods involve the use of a compound, that is controlled by MvfR, and that affects the expression of an MvfR protein or that promotes its modification or inactivation, or a compound produced by strain PA14, but not by containing an mvfR mutation, in late stationary phase culture.
