“…[1] Bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) represents an attractive target for the development of new antibacterial agents effective against bacterial pathogens resistant against current antibacterial drugs. [2] In particular, the RNAP “switch region SW1/SW2 sub-region,” a structural element that mediates opening and closing of the RNAP active-center cleft, has been shown be the binding site for three classes of antibacterial natural products: ripostatins (Fig. 1, 1 , 1' , and 2 ), corallopyronins (Fig 1, 3 ) and myxopyronins (Fig 1, 4 ).…”

“…Another positive target of the Wolbachia bacteria in filarial nematodes is their RNA polymerase (RNAP). Bacterial RNAP has been proven to be a potent target for the development of highly specific antibacterial drugs as it is a vital enzyme for cell survival ( Brodolin, 2018 ). RNAP and its associated transcription factors are highly conserved across the bacterial domain and represent excellent targets for broad spectrum antibacterial agent discovery.…”

“…Rifampicyna przyłącza się do podjednostki β polimerazy RNA. W obecności antybiotyku aktywność polimerazy RNA zostaje zablokowana, tym samym nie dochodzi do transkrypcji genów niezbędnych do funkcjonowania komórki, czego następstwem jest śmierci bakterii [12].…”
