ENTRY       EC 5.99.1.3
NAME        DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing)
            Type II DNA topoisomerase
            DNA-gyrase
CLASS       Isomerases
            Other isomerases
SYSNAME     DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing)
REACTION    ATP-dependent breakage, passage and rejoining of double-stranded
            DNA
SUBSTRATE   Double-stranded DNA
            ATP
PRODUCT     Double-stranded DNA
            ADP
            Orthophosphate
INHIBITOR   Novobiocin
            GRI22222X
            Coumermycin A1
            Nalidixic acid
            Ciprofloxacin
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).
            Inhibited by two groups of antibiotics, the coumarins and the
            quinolones.  The coumarins (e.g. novobiocin, coumermycin A1)
            act at the B subunit (Proc.Nat.Acad.Sci.U.S.A. 1978, 75,
            4838-4842).  The quinolones (e.g. nalidixic acid, ciprofloxacin)
            act on the A subunit.  GRI22222X and cyclothialidine are a new
            class of inhibitor (Antimicrob.Agents Chemother. 1994, 37,
            2656-2661).
