DNA topoisomerase 4 subunit B

Also known as: JW2998, b3030, nfxD, parE

Function

Topoisomerase IV is essential for chromosome segregation; it is the principal protein responsible for decatenating newly replicated chromosomes. It relaxes supercoiled DNA. MukB stimulates the relaxation activity of topoisomerase IV and also has a modest effect on decatenation.
