Term:DNA negative supercoiling activity

Accession:GO:0034335 term browser browse the term
Definition:Catalytic introduction of negative supercoils into a DNA molecule or region thereof. In bacteria, negative supercoils are only introduced by DNA gyrase, a type II topoisomerase, but not all DNA gyrases are capable of introducing supercoils. In bacteria, the level of supercoiling varies widely between species and has been characterized properly in only a handful of organisms. The best characterized enzyme, from E.coli, is exceptionally proficient at supercoiling and this ability is not representative of all bacteria.
Comment:Note that this term was reinstated from obsolete.
Synonyms:related_synonym: DNA gyrase activity
