Bacterial DNA gyrase is a heterodimeric type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils circular double-stranded DNA.{22833,27399} Oxolinic acid is a quinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, but not eukaryotic topoisomerases, reversibly binding gyrase subunit A in gyrase-DNA complexes, blocking supercoiling activity and inhibiting DNA synthesis at 0.5-5 µg/ml.{22833,27401,27400} Oxolinic acid also blocks neuronal uptake of dopamine in mammals (IC50 = 4.3 µM), leading to an increase in locomotor activity.{27402}
