The ancestral role of ATP hydrolysis in type II topoisomerases: prevention of DNA double-strand breaks

Type II DNA topoisomerases (topos) catalyse changes in DNA topology by passing one double-stranded DNA segment through another. This reaction is essential to processes such as replication and transcription, but carries with it the inherent danger of permanent double-strand break (DSB) formation. All...
