Abstract
Bacterial topoisomerase IV (ParE) is essential for DNA replication and serves as an attractive target for antibacterial drug development. The X-ray structure of the N-terminal 24 kDa ParE, responsible for ATP binding has been solved. Due to the accessibility of structural information of ParE, many potent ParE inhibitors have been discovered. In this study, a pyridylurea lead molecule against ParE of Escherichia coli (eParE) was characterized with a series of biochemical and biophysical techniques. More importantly, solution NMR analysis of compound binding to eParE provides better understanding of the molecular interactions between the inhibitor and eParE.
