摘要
Type II DNA topoisomerases are enzymes capable of passing one DNA duplex through another. A combination of structural and biochemical analyses is illuminating the mechanistic details of this transport reaction, revealing the sites of DNA and nucleotide binding and the existence of large-scale domain motions.
