Salmonella typhimurium gyrA mutations associated with fluoroquinolone resistance [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1995
Spontaneous quinolone-resistant mutants obtained from Salmonella typhimurium Su694 were screened for mutations by direct DNA sequencing of an amplified PCR gyrA fragment. Substitutions Ser-83-->Phe (Ser83Phe), Ser83Tyr, Asp87Tyr, and Asp87Asn and double mutation Ala67Pro-Gly81Ser, which resulted in decreased sensitivities to ciprofloxacin, enoxacin,

Molecular Detection of gyrA Mutation in Clinical Strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2022
Background: Multi-drug resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae strains cause the majority of community acquired and life-threatening infections. We aimed to detect the gyrA mutations in the clinical strains of nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin resistant K. pneumoniae isolated from the patients with urinary tract infections.

Analytical profiling of mutations in quinolone resistance determining region of gyrA gene among UPEC. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Mutations in gyrA are the primary cause of quinolone resistance encountered in gram-negative clinical isolates. The prospect of this work was to analyze the role of gyrA mutations in eliciting high quinolone resistance in uropathogenic E.coli (UPEC ...

Molecular Characterization of Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Bartonella bacilliformis

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
The presence of amino acid changes in GyrA, GyrB, ParC, ParE, and in a proposed chromosomal chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT), as well as mutations at 23S rRNA, were established by PCR and sequencing in 38 B.

Gyrase inhibitors can increase gyrA expression and DNA supercoiling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1989
Treatment of bacterial cells with inhibitors of gyrase at high concentration leads to relaxation of DNA supercoils, presumably through interference with the supercoiling activity of gyrase. Under certain conditions, however, the inhibitors can also increase supercoiling.

Evolutionary analysis of gyrA gene from Neisseria meningitidis bacterial strains of clonal complex 4821 collected in China between 1978 and 2016

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Neisseria meningitidis (N.meningitidis) bacteria belonging to clonal complex 4821 (CC4821) have been mainly reported in China and have been characterized by a high resistance rate to ciprofloxacin (CIP). The aim of this study was to assess the
