Purified QnrA blocked ciprofloxacin inhibition of topoisomerase IV, just as QnrA was previously found to prevent quinolone inhibition of DNA gyrase. With a gel displacement assay, tagged QnrA was shown to bind to topoisomerase IV and its subunits in a reaction that did not depend on the presence of DNA, quinolone, or ATP.
纯化的QnrA可阻断环丙沙星对拓扑异构酶IV的抑制作用,正如之前发现QnrA可防止喹诺酮对DNA回旋酶的抑制作用一样。通过凝胶迁移试验表明,标记的QnrA在不依赖DNA、喹诺酮或ATP存在的反应中可与拓扑异构酶IV及其亚基结合。
