Microbial DNA synthesis enzyme
- Molecular classification
- Enzyme
01
Overview
Microbial DNA synthesis enzymes are crucial for bacterial DNA replication and repair. They include enzymes like DNA polymerases, DNA gyrase, and RNA polymerase, which are essential for bacterial survival and proliferation. Targeting these enzymes with drugs like fluoroquinolones and rifamycins is a common strategy in treating bacterial infections. However, resistance development and side effects are significant concerns.
