DNA topoisomerase 2-alpha

UniProt P11388 Organism Homo sapiens Gene TOP2, TOP2A EC 5.6.2.2

Also known as: TOP2, TOP2A

Function

Key decatenating enzyme that alters DNA topology by binding to two double-stranded DNA molecules, generating a double-stranded break in one of the strands, passing the intact strand through the broken strand, and religating the broken strand. May play a role in regulating the period length of BMAL1 transcriptional oscillation (By similarity).
