Melbourne researchers say they have discovered the atomic structure of an anti-bacterial viral protein that could be used as an alternative to antibiotics. Researchers led by the Rockefeller Universitysay say PlyC, a viral protein known as bacteriophage lysin, was first identified in 1925 but was abandoned as a possible treatment for infections following the discovery of antibiotics.
