Mechanisms and Frequency of Resistance to Premafloxacin in Staphylococcus aureus: Novel Mutations Suggest Novel Drug-Target Interactions

Premafloxacin is a novel 8-methoxy fluoroquinolone with enhanced activity against Staphylococcus aureus. We found premafloxacin to be 32-fold more active than ciprofloxacin against wild-type S. aureus. Single mutations in either subunit of topoisomerase IV caused a four- to eightfold increase in the...
