I identified and characterized drug targets in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, focusing on GTPase-Obg's role in stress response and antibiotic resistance. Through a series of experiments, I elucidated its function and modeled its 3D structure, screening it against drug-like molecules to establish its potential as a therapeutic target.
