An update on chemical classes targeting ERK1/2 for the management of cancer.

abstract：:New antibacterials that modulate less explored targets are needed to fight the emerging bacterial resistance. DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV are attractive targets in this search. These are both type II topoisomerases that can cleave both DNA strands, and can thus alter DNA topology during replication or similar proc...
