Abstract excerpt

Bacterial DNA gyrase enzyme plays a role in replication, transcription, recombination and repair. Escherichia coli gyrase enzyme is composed of two types of subunit, the gyr A and gyr B gene products called subunit A and B. Each type of subunit can be inhibited with temperature-sensitive mutation...
