ATP binding controls distinct structural transitions of Escherichia coli DNA gyrase in complex with DNA

DNA gyrase is a molecular motor that harnesses the free energy of ATP hydrolysis to introduce negative supercoils into DNA. A critical step in this reaction is the formation of a chiral DNA wrap on a similar scale to the nucleosome. Here we observe gyrase structural dynamics using a single-molecule...
