Topoisomerase IV tracks behind the replication fork and the SeqA complex during DNA replication in Escherichia coli
Abstract Topoisomerase IV (TopoIV) is a vital bacterial enzyme which disentangles newly replicated DNA and enables segregation of daughter chromosomes. In bacteria, DNA replication and segregation are concurrent processes. This means that TopoIV must continually remove inter-DNA linkages during repl...
