Bacterial Topoisomerase I is a potential target for the identification of novel topoisomerase poison inhibitors that could provide leads for a new class of antibacterial compounds. Here we describe in detail a fluorescence-based cleavage assay that is successfully used in HTS for the discovery of bacterial topoisomerase Ι poisons.
细菌拓扑异构酶I是鉴定新型拓扑异构酶中毒抑制剂的潜在靶点,这些抑制剂可为新型抗菌化合物提供线索。在此,我们详细描述了一种基于荧光的切割测定法,该方法已成功用于高通量筛选以发现细菌拓扑异构酶I中毒剂。
