    Description

    Gepotidacin mesylate hydrate is an orally active triazaacenaphthylene antibiotic and bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor. Gepotidacin mesylate hydrate inhibits bacterial DNA replication by blocking topoisomerase enzymes. Gepotidacin mesylate hydrate selectively inhibits topoisomerase IV and the B subunit of DNA gyrase[1][2].

    In Vitro

    Gepotidacin is a potent inhibitor of gyrase-catalyzed DNA supercoiling (IC50 ≈ 0.047 μM) and relaxation of positively supercoiled substrates (IC50 ≈ 0.6 μM)[1].
    The MIC of Gepotidacin for E. coli isolates in Mueller-Hinton broth ranged from 1 to 4 mg/L[2].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
