Planteome: Term Details for "DNA gyrase complex" (GO:0120217)

Accession: GO:0120217
Name: DNA gyrase complex
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: topoisomerase II complex
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A bacterial type IIA topoisomerase that is unique in its function of introducing negative supercoils into DNA at the expense of ATP hydrolysis and is also capable of relaxing positive supercoils, an activity shared with topoisomerase IV. Typically, it is composed of two copies each of an A subunit (GyrA) and a B subunit (GyrB). Source: PMID:1657531, GOC:krc, Wikipedia:DNA_gyrase, PMID:20675723, GOC:bhm
