Gyrase containing a single C-terminal domain catalyzes negative supercoiling of DNA by decreasing the linking number in steps of two

The topological state of DNA in vivo is regulated by topoisomerases. Gyrase is a bacterial topoisomerase that introduces negative supercoils into DNA at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. According to the strand-passage mechanism, a double-strand of the DNA substrate is cleaved, and a second double-stra...
