DNA topoisomerase 4 subunit A (ParC)

Target
ParC
Molecular classification
Enzyme
01

Overview

DNA topoisomerase 4 subunit A, also known as ParC, is a protein component of the bacterial enzyme topoisomerase IV. This enzyme is essential for chromosome segregation during cell division in bacteria. It is a target for quinolone antibiotics.
