Beschreibung

Application

DNA gyrase from Escherichia coli has been used in a study to investigate a comparative proteomic approach to better define Deinococcus nucleoid specificities. DNA gyrase from Escherichia coli has also been used in a study to investigate the role of the DnaK-ClpB bichaperone system in DNA gyrase reactivation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Can be used to supercoil plasmids.

DNA gyrase is supplied as an A₂B₂ holoenzyme. The molecular mass of subunit A is 97 kDa and that of subunit B is 90 kDa. It catalyzes the ATP-dependent introduction of negative supercoils into relaxed DNA.[1] DNA gyrase has been successfully converted into a type II topoisomerase by mutagenesis experiments.[2]

Other Notes

One unit of gyrase activity will supercoil 0.5 micrograms of pBR-322 DNA in 30 minutes at 37 °C.

Solution in 50% Glycerol containing Tris buffer, DTT and EDTA.
