Broken beyond repair: TA system ParE toxins mediate effective gyrase inhibition without driving resistance

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
DNA gyrase is an essential bacterial-specific type IIA topoisomerase that corrects DNA overwinding during transcription and replication. Compounds capable of stabilizing gyrase-mediated double-strand DNA breaks are valuable antibacterials; however, these

The Effect of Compositional Context on Synthetic Gene Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It is well known that synthetic gene expression is highly sensitive to how genetic elements (promoter structure, spacing regions between promoter and coding sequences, ribosome binding sites, etc.) are spatially configured.

Identification of novel bacterial DNA gyrase inhibitors: An in silico study

open access: yesResearch in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2016
Owing to essential role in bacterial survival, DNA gyrase has been exploited as a validated drug target. However, rapidly emerging resistance to gyrase-targeted drugs such as widely utilized fluoroquinolones reveals the necessity to develop novel ...

The antimicrobial lysine-peptoid hybrid LP5 inhibits DNA replication and induces the SOS response in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria has led to renewed interest in development of alternative antimicrobial compounds such as antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), either naturally-occurring or synthetically-derived.

DNA gyrase stimulates transcription.

open access: yesNucleic acids research, 1981
The nuclear DNA of HeLa cells can now be isolated unbroken and supercoiled. Using DNA gyrase and the untwisting enzyme, we have prepared an allomorphic series of templates derived from this nuclear DNA, and also from the circular DNA of the bacterial virus, PM2. We have then transcribed these templates using 2 different RNA polymerases--from wheat germ

Compounding Effects of Climate Warming and Antibiotic Resistance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bacteria have evolved diverse mechanisms to survive environments with antibiotics. Temperature is both a key factor that affects the survival of bacteria in the presence of antibiotics and an environmental trait that is drastically increasing due to ...
