DNA Gyrase is a protein located mainly in Prokaryotes, specifically bacteria. It falls under the Topoisomerase family and can be referred to as Topoisomerase II. It is responsible for negatively induced supercoiling. This method of supercoiling is used to reduce the strain caused by the twists in DNA. It aids in compaction, as well as separation of DNA. As one can see, it plays a significant role in prokaryotes. | DNA Gyrase is a protein located mainly in Prokaryotes, specifically bacteria.
