QUICK LINKS
Ofloxacin N-Oxide Acetic Acid Salt (Mixture of Diastereomers) is a compound that functions as an inhibitor of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. It exerts its mode of action by binding to the A subunit of DNA gyrase and the ParC subunit of topoisomerase IV, thereby preventing the relaxation of supercoiled DNA and leading to the accumulation of double-stranded breaks in bacterial DNA. This disruption ultimately inhibits bacterial DNA replication and transcription, resulting in bactericidal effects. The compound′s mechanism of action involves the interference with essential cellular processes in bacteria, leading to the inhibition of bacterial growth and proliferation. This compound′s functional role in experimental applications involves its use as a tool to study the molecular interactions involved in bacterial DNA replication and transcription, providing insights into potential targets for antibacterial product development.
