Protein namesRecommended name:
DNA gyrase subunit A

EC=5.99.1.3
Gene names
Name:gyrA
OrganismStaphylococcus aureus
Taxonomic identifier1280 [NCBI]
Taxonomic lineageBacteriaFirmicutesBacillalesStaphylococcus

Protein attributes

Sequence length889 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

DNA gyrase negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded DNA in an ATP-dependent manner and also catalyzes the interconversion of other topological isomers of double-stranded DNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. HAMAP MF_01897

Catalytic activity

ATP-dependent breakage, passage and rejoining of double-stranded DNA. HAMAP MF_01897

Subunit structure

Made up of two chains. The A chain is responsible for DNA breakage and rejoining; the B chain catalyzes ATP hydrolysis. The enzyme forms an A2B2 tetramer.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm Potential HAMAP MF_01897.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the topoisomerase GyrA/ParC subunit family.
