https://www.selleckchem.com/products/mito-tempo.html DNA gyrase, a type II topoisomerase found predominantly in bacteria, is the target for a variety of 'poisons', namely natural product toxins (e.g. albicidin, microcin B17) and clinically important synthetic molecules (e.g. fluoroquinolones). Resistance to both groups can be mediated by pentapeptide repeat proteins (PRPs). Despite long-term studies, the mechanism of action of these protective PRPs is not known. We show that a PRP, QnrB1 provides specific protection against fluoroquinolones, which strictly requires ATP hydrolysis by gyrase. QnrB1 binds to the GyrB protein and stimulates ATPase activity of the isolated N-terminal ATPase domain of GyrB (GyrB43). We probed the QnrB1 binding site using site-specific incorporation of a photoreactive amino acid and mapped the crosslinks to the GyrB43 protein. We propose a model in which QnrB1 binding allosterically promotes dissociation of the fluoroquinolone molecule from the cleavage complex.Enhancers play important roles in controlling gene expression in a choreographed spatial and temporal manner during development. However, it is unclear how these regulatory regions are established during differentiation. Here we investigated the genome-wide binding profile of the forkhead transcription factor FOXK2 in human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and downstream cell types. This transcription factor is bound to thousands of regulatory regions in human ESCs, and binding at many sites is maintained as cells differentiate to mesendodermal and neural precursor cell (NPC) types, alongside the emergence of new binding regions. FOXK2 binding is generally associated with active histone marks in any given cell type. Furthermore newly acquired, or retained FOXK2 binding regions show elevated levels of activating histone marks following differentiation to NPCs. In keeping with this association with activating marks, we demonstrate a role for FOXK transcription factors in gene activation du
