Metabolic Analysis of the Mode of Action and Mode of Resistance for Novobiocin in Staphylococcus aureus
Abstract: Novobiocin is an aminocoumarin antibiotic that targets DNA gyrase, a critical enzyme involved in bacterial DNA replication. In Staphylococcus aureus, resistance to novobiocin is increasingly observed, necessitating a comprehensive metabolic analysis of both its mechanism of action and resistance pathways. This study explores the metabolic
