Illustration showing the Catalytic mechanisms of Topoisomerases

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Summary of topoisomerase types and catalytic mechanisms. The topoisomerases are categorised based on whether they catalyse single- (type I) or double-stranded (type II) DNA breaks. The type I topoisomerases are further subdivided to type IA, IB and IC. Type IA form a transient covalent bond to the 5ʹ DNA phosphate and function via a strand passage mechanism. Type IB and IC form a transient covalent bond to the 3ʹ DNA phosphate and function via a controlled-rotation mechanism. Type II topoisomerases are further subdivided into type IIA and IIB. Both form a transient covalent bond to the 5ʹ DNA phosphate of both strands of the duplex and function via a strand-passage mechanism
