Fig. The gyrA amino acid sequence of Corynebacterium non diphtheriae isolates taken as examples. Positions of point mutations found in the gyrA amino acid sequence, which, according to the literature, affect the increase in the quinolone/fluoroquinolone minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), are marked with frames
