Mechanism of inhibition of DNA gyrase by quinolone antibacterials: a cooperative drug-DNA binding model
Abstract
We have proposed a cooperative quinolone-DNA binding model for the inhibition of DNA gyrase. The essential feature of the model is that bound gyrase induces a specific quinolone binding site in the relaxed DNA substrate in the presence of ATP. The binding affinity and specificity are derived from two unique and equally important functional features: the specific conformation of the proposed single-stranded DNA pocket induced by the enzyme and the unique self-association phenomenon (from which the cooperativity is derived) of the drug molecules to fit the binding pocket with a high degree of flexibility. Supporting evidence for and implications of this model are provided.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
