EC 5.99.1.3 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

5.99.1.3

Accepted name

DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing)

Reaction

ATP-dependent breakage, passage and rejoining of double-stranded DNA

Other name(s)

type II DNA topoisomerase, DNA-gyrase, deoxyribonucleate topoisomerase, deoxyribonucleic topoisomerase, topoisomerase, DNA topoisomerase II

Systematic name

DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing)

CAS registry number

142805-56-9

Comment

The enzyme can introduce negative superhelical turns into double-stranded circular DNA. One unit has nicking-closing activity, and another catalyses super-twisting and hydrolysis of ATP (cf. EC 5.99.1.2 DNA topoisomerase).
