MeSH Heading: DNA Topoisomerase IV
Tree Number(s): D08.811.399.403.741.224; D12.776.097.256
Unique ID: D027101
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D027101
Scope Note: A bacterial DNA topoisomerase II that catalyzes ATP-dependent breakage of both strands of DNA, passage of the unbroken strands through the breaks, and rejoining of the broken strands. Topoisomerase IV binds to DNA as a heterotetramer consisting 2 parC and 2 parE subunits. Topoisomerase IV is a decatenating enzyme that resolves interlinked daughter chromosomes following DNA replication.
Entry Term(s): Topo IV; Topoisomerase IV; Topoisomerase IV Subunit A; Topoisomerase IV Subunit B; parC Gene Product; parC Gene Product, Topo IV; parC Protein; parE Gene Product; parE Gene Product, Topo IV; parE Protein
