General description

Chemical structure: coumarin-glycoside

Application

For the production of positively supercoiled plasmid DNA. Inhibitor of bacterial DNA gyrase and eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase. Inhibitor of retrovirus RNA-dependent DNA-polymerase.
Novobiocin is used to study heat shock protein inhibition [1] and to produce positively supercoiled plasmid DNA.[2] It is an inhibitor of bacterial DNA gyrase and eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase.[3] It also is an inhibitor of retrovirus RNA-dependent DNA-polymerase.[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mode of Action: Inhibits DNA synthesis by inhibiting the enzyme Topoisomerase II.
Antimicrobial spectrum: Gram-positive bacterial.
Novobiocin inhibits DNA synthesis by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase targeting the GyrB subunit of the enzyme involved in energy transduction. Novobiocin acts as a competitive inhibitors of the ATPase reaction catalysed by GyrB [5]. It is also a Hsp90 inhibitor [1]. Antimicrobial spectrum: Gram-positive bacterial.
