Type II topoisomerases undergo a strand-passage mechanism to remove supercoiling and disentangle chromosomes. These enzymes cleave both strands of DNA and then pass a second duplex through the break using ATP. The cleaved strands are ligated together again and the two products are released from the enzyme <ref>PMID:23965305</ref>.
