Krogh B O, Shuman S
Abstract excerpt
Type IB topoisomerases and tyrosine recombinases are structurally homologous strand transferases that act through DNA-(3'-phosphotyrosyl)-enzyme intermediates. A constellation of conserved amino acids (Arg-130, Lys-167, Arg-223, and His-265 in vaccinia topoisomerase) catalyzes transesterification...
