DNA gyrase with a single catalytic tyrosine can catalyze DNA supercoiling by a nicking-closing mechanism
The topological state of DNA is important for replication, recombination and transcription, and is regulated in vivo by DNA topoisomerases. Gyrase introduces negative supercoils into DNA at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. It is the accepted view that gyrase achieves supercoiling by a strand passage m...
