HisG is an ATP-phosphoribosyl transferase (ATPPRTase) that catalyzes the first step in the biosynthetic pathway for histidine. Among the enzymes in this pathway, only HisG represents a potential drug target for tuberculosis. Only a few inhibitors with limited potency for
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is a substance whose widespread use, mainly in wood protection and pulp and paper mills, has led to a substantial environmental contamination. This in turn accounts for a significant exposure of the general human population, with rather high

The existence of a lot of worldwide pentachlorophenol-contaminated sites has induced scientists to concentrate their effort in finding ways to degrade it. Therefore, an effective tool to decompose it from soil mixtures is needed. In this work the efficiency of
