抗生素是其中一種應付細菌或微生物的手段，以Virginiamycin M2(VM2)這抗生素為例，它能夠與細菌的核糖體（Ribosome)結合，從而抑制細菌的生長及繁殖。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi6RMDa4wG

為應對抗生素的襲擊，細菌亦會發展出不同的機制作出制衡。同樣以VM2作為例子，細菌會生產一隻名為VatA酵素，能夠有效對VM2進行改造。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCIOvoMaux

被改造的VM2再也無法合併及阻礙Ribosome功能，細菌亦得以繼續無阻繁殖，展示出抗藥性。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo8KaLTcjh

（圖2）最近，有科學家應用名為Modular Synthesis的技術進行應對(Ref1)。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVfKiJgEE1
簡單來說，Modular Synthesis就把化學物當作是砌LEGO一樣，能夠任意在短時間內改組化學物的各個部位。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw2kD7zJYG

如圖中所示，化學物各顏色部位均能轉變成其相應顏色的組件。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls2I00cnva

（圖3）經過一輪的驗證後，科學家發現細菌VatA酵素會在VM2某部位(C14)進行改造，但箇中過程將會與VM2另一個位置(C4)進行觸碰。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLFs57qh88
961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi9PPfJymZ
961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9jFTKUsm0
基於這點，科學家特意在C4部位裝上一大串臃腫的化學結構，促使細菌VatA酵素無法與VM2進行互動的同時，亦能確保人為改造的VM2能夠使細菌的Ribosome功能受阻。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYFhexQZ1e

當然，並不難想像細菌會隨著時間的增長發展出另一種新穎的應對方法，到時候科學家會否重用Modular Synthesis技倆應對，或者發展出一道一勞永逸的方法，就有待我們細心等候了。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXS3LqemOe

暫時來說，這場道高一尺、魔高一丈的遊戲，應該還要持續好一段的時間。961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIpSPp6SR3
