Portions of GyrB from E. coli (Ec) (4), S. aureus (Sa) (17), B. subtilis (Bs) (29), B. burgdorferi (Bb) (45), and C. trachomatis and of ParE from E. coli (Ec) (22), S. aureus (Sa) (6), B. subtilis (Bs) (43), B. burgdorferi (Bb) (10), and C. trachomatis (Ct) were compared. All the sequences compared corresponded to amino acids 6 to 804 and 42 to 555 of E. coli GyrB and ParE, respectively.
