Antibiotic Target?

[edit]

Since the DNA clamp used by bacteria - the beta clamp - is so different from that found in eukaryotes (like humans), does it not follow that drugs could be made which specifically interfere with the functionality of the bacterial beta clamp that would not have any effect on DNA clamps in human cells? A drug that could drastically disrupt the speed with which bacteria can copy their DNA, and therefore the speed with which they can multiply, could have powerful antibiotic activity.

Has this been investigated at all? Spiral5800 (talk) 01:30, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Topological equivalence of bacterial clamps

[edit]

The three domains in a bacterial clamp are currently declared (without reference) to be 'topologically non-equivalent'. This is not true, and probably comes from incorrectly merging adjacent beta strands in secondary structure assignment (see the topology diagram at pdbsum, for instance). Inspecting the structure makes it clear that the topology is equivalent. --Quantum7 10:50, 4 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
