Application

• Enhancing antibiotic effectiveness: Novobiocin is explored as a co-agent in antibacterial strategies, particularly in enhancing the efficacy of other antibiotics like rifampicin against multidrug-resistant bacteria. This underscores its role in combating bacterial resistance and its potential application in developing new antibacterial therapies (Ramirez et al., 2024).


• Gene expression modulation: The study investigates novobiocin′s impact on gene expression related to antibiotic production, demonstrating its utility in biotechnological applications to boost the yield of other clinically important antibiotics. This research highlights its role in understanding and manipulating microbial pathways for enhanced drug production (Zhukrovska et al., 2024).


• Microbial metabolism in animal health: Novobiocin′s effects on microbial nitrogen metabolism in composted poultry litter are assessed, providing insights into its environmental and veterinary applications. This study illustrates its broader applications beyond human medicine, particularly in agricultural and environmental health (Arzola-Alvarez et al., 2022).
