Structure of an ‘open’ clamp type II topoisomerase-DNA complex provides a mechanism for DNA capture and transport

Type II topoisomerases regulate DNA supercoiling and chromosome segregation. They act as ATP-operated clamps that capture a DNA duplex and pass it through a transient DNA break in a second DNA segment via the sequential opening and closure of ATPase-, G-DNA- and C-gates. Here, we present the first ‘...
