Mutations that Separate the Functions of the Proofreading Subunit of the Escherichia coli Replicase
The dnaQ gene of Escherichia coli encodes the Ɛ subunit of DNA polymerase III, which provides the 3\u27 - 5\u27 exonuclease proofreading activity of the replicative polymerase.

Effect of efflux pump inhibition on Pseudomonas aeruginosa transcriptome and virulence [PDF]
Efflux pumps of the resistance-nodulation-cell-division (RND) family increase antibiotic resistance in many bacterial pathogens, representing candidate targets for the development of antibiotic adjuvants.

Meningococcal Quinolone Resistance Originated from Several Commensal Neisseria Species
Quinolone resistance is increasing in Neisseria meningitidis, with its prevalence in China being high (>70%), but its origin remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the donors of mutation-harboring gyrA alleles in N. meningitidis.

Many of the infectious diseases that affect livestock have bacteria as etiological agents. Thus, therapy is based on antimicrobials that leave the animal’s tissues mainly via urine, reaching the environment through slurry and waste water.

A Crystal Structure of the Bifunctional Antibiotic Simocyclinone D8, Bound to DNA Gyrase [PDF]
Simocyclinones are bifunctional antibiotics that inhibit bacterial DNA gyrase by preventing DNA binding to the enzyme. We report the crystal structure of the complex formed between the N-terminal domain of the Escherichia coli gyrase A subunit and ...

Complexation of norfloxacin with DNA in the presence of caffeine [PDF]
1H NMR spectroscopy (500 MHz) has been used to quantify the complexation of the antibacterial antibiotic Norfloxacin (NOR) with DNA in the presence of Caffeine (CAF). Separate studies have been made for the self-association of NOR, its hetero-association

Reactive oxygen species play a dominant role in all pathways of rapid quinolone-mediated killing.
BACKGROUND Quinolones have been thought to rapidly kill bacteria in two ways: (i) quinolone-topoisomerase-DNA lesions stimulate the accumulation of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS); and (ii) the lesions directly cause lethal DNA breaks.

Cinnamic‐hydroxamic‐acid derivatives (CHADs) are identified as novel inhibitors of the bacterial nucleoid‐associated protein HU, exhibiting potent antibacterial, anti‐biofilm (both inhibition and eradication), and DNA relaxation (anti‐supercoiling) activities. Moreover, CHADs demonstrate strong synergistic effects with multiple antibiotics.
