Binding Kinetics Oppositely Regulates type II Topoisomerase Relaxation and Decatenation Activities

Cleis Battaglia, Filippo Conforto, Yair Augusto Gutiérrez Fosado…·Antonio Valdés

This study shows that topo II binding kinetics oppositely regulate decatenation and relaxation activities through a trade-off between search efficiency and processivity.
