Why Two? On the Role of (A-)Symmetry in Negative Supercoiling of DNA by Gyrase
Gyrase is a type IIA topoisomerase that catalyzes negative supercoiling of DNA. The enzyme consists of two GyrA and two GyrB subunits. It is believed to introduce negative supercoils into DNA by converting a positive DNA node into a negative node through strand passage: First, it cleaves both DNA st...
