Topo IV is the topoisomerase that knots and unknots sister duplexes during DNA replication
DNA topology plays a crucial role in all living cells. In prokaryotes, negative supercoiling is required to initiate replication and either negative or positive supercoiling assists decatenation. The role of DNA knots, however, remains a mystery. Knots are very harmful for cells if not removed effic...
