Abstract

Bacterial DNA primase DnaG is an attractive target for antibiotic discovery since it plays an essential role in DNA replication. Over the last 10 years, we have developed and optimized a robust colorimetric assay that enabled us to identify and validate inhibitors of bacterial primases. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for this colorimetric assay for DnaG from three different pathogenic bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Bacillus anthracis, and Staphylococcus aureus), which can be performed in high throughput. We also describe secondary assays to characterize hits from this high-throughput screening assay. These assays are designed to identify inhibitors of the coupled enzyme inorganic pyrophosphatase, DNA binding agents, and elucidate the mode of inhibition of primase inhibitors.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 November 2022.
All research outputs
#23,117,049
of 25,766,791 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#11,159
of 14,346 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#411,101
of 480,211 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#619
of 714 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,766,791 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,346 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 480,211 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 714 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
