Characterization of the Interaction between DNA Gyrase Inhibitor and DNA Gyrase of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Escherichia coli DNA gyrase is comprised of two subunits, GyrA and GyrB. Previous studies have shown that GyrI, a regulatory factor of DNA gyrase activity, inhibits the supercoiling activity of DNA gyrase and that both overexpression and antisense expression of the gyrI gene suppress cell proliferation.

This pharmacovigilance study identifies a wide range of rapid‐onset neuropsychiatric and ocular adverse effects linked to fluoroquinolones (FQ). Disproportionality analysis revealed a disproportionate reporting of suicidal ideation and visual impairment following FQ treatment, emphasizing the urgent need for cautious prescribing and strengthened safety

Novel compounds targeting bacterial DNA topoisomerase/DNA gyrase
Among the targets for the development of new antibacterial agents, bacterial topoisomerases remain a vibrant area of discovery. A structurally diverse set of inhibitors that bind to the adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) site of type II topoisomerases have been disclosed recently.

ABSTRACT Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are emerging global pathogens. This study aimed to analyze the clinical features, species distribution, and drug resistance profiles of NTM infections in a northern Chinese hospital. A retrospective cohort study included 1769 patients with suspected mycobacterial infection from August 2023 to July 2025.

Novel nitro‐substituted diaryl 1,3,4‐ and 1,2,4‐oxadiazoles were synthesised via molecular hybridisation of bioactive heterocycles. Selected derivatives exhibited potent antimicrobial activity, including against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Staphylococcus aureus, and cholinesterase inhibitory activity, with promising selectivity.

Docking studies on novel analogs of quinolones against DNA gyrase of Escherichia coli [PDF]
Context: Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is the inevitable consequence of the use of antimicrobial agents. Thus, quinolones are an important class of antibacterials; these agents generally consist of a 1-subtituted-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyridine-3 ...

Benzothiazinone-piperazine derivatives as efficient Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase inhibitors
Background and objectives: Bacterial DNA topoisomerases are unique in maintaining the DNA topology for cell viability. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) DNA gyrase, a sole type II topoisomerase has a larger scope as a target for developing novel ...
