Journal ArticleDOI
Exploiting bacterial DNA gyrase as a drug target: current state and perspectives.
TL;DR: Known gyrase-specific drugs and toxins are reviewed and the prospects for developing new antibacterials targeted to this enzyme are assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary and Microbial Oxazoles Induce Intestinal Inflammation by Modulating Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Responses.
Shankar S. Iyer,Thomas Gensollen,Amit Gandhi,Sungwhan F. Oh,Joana F. Neves,Frédéric Collin,Richard Lavin,Carme Serra,Jonathan N. Glickman,Punyanganie S. de Silva,R. Balfour Sartor,Gurdyal S. Besra,Russell Hauser,Anthony Maxwell,Amadeu Llebaria,Richard S. Blumberg +15 more
TL;DR: Environmental derived oxazoles are identified as triggers of CD1d-dependent intestinal inflammatory responses that occur via activation of the AhR in the intestinal epithelium.
Journal ArticleDOI
The naphthoquinone diospyrin is an inhibitor of DNA gyrase with a novel mechanism of action.
Shantanu Karkare,Terence T.H. Chung,Frédéric Collin,Lesley A. Mitchenall,Adam R. McKay,Sandra J. Greive,J.J.M. Meyer,Namrita Lall,Anthony Maxwell +8 more
TL;DR: Diospyrin and other naphthoquinones are found to be inhibitors of the supercoiling reaction catalyzed by M. tuberculosis gyrase and other gyrases and have potential as antibacterial compounds against TB.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Microbial Toxin Microcin B17: Prospects for the Development of New Antibacterial Agents
Frédéric Collin,Anthony Maxwell +1 more
TL;DR: The evidence gathered over more than 40 years about this still enigmatic molecule is summarized to place it in the wider context of antibacterials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fragments of the Bacterial Toxin Microcin B17 as Gyrase Poisons
TL;DR: The investigation of the structural features responsible for MccB17 activity and the identification of fragments of the toxin that retain the ability to stabilise the cleavage complex are described.
