Structure of a topoisomerase II-DNA-nucleotide complex reveals a new control mechanism for ATPase activity

Type IIA topoisomerases control DNA supercoiling and disentangle chromosomes by a complex, ATP-dependent strand passage mechanism. Although a general framework exists for type IIA topoisomerase function, the architecture of the full-length enzyme has remained undefined. Here we present the first str...
