TOPOISOMERASE II
START
DNA gyrase in bacteria (topoisomerase II in eukaryotes) relieves the tension by changing the DNA into negatively supercoiled DNA. How does it work?
DNA GYRASE
Supercoiled
If DNA Gyrase inhibited?
Differences between topoisomerase 1 & 2
Introduction
Mechanism
DNA GYRASE
DNA Gyrase: - A type II topoisomerase - Found in the nucleoid region of bacterial cells- Involved in DNA replication and repair - Require 2 ATP molecules - Contain 3 gates: N-gates, DNA-gates, C-gates Function: - involved in the control of topological transitions of DNA- catalyse negative supercoiling (ATP- dependent
INTRODUCTION
How E.Coli can packed so many DNA in its small volume?
+ Info
Unseparated portion becomes more tightly woundOccur when the DNA strands relieves its helical stress by twisting around itself
Positive Supercoiling
Untangling the Knots: Exploring the Mechanism of Topoisomerase
Mechanism of DNA Gyrase
- DNA gyrase binds to double-stranded DNA
- Introduces a double-strand breaks
- Another double-strand will pass through the gap
- Reseals the double-strand break (require ATP)
- The strands are releaved from DNA gyrase
Mechanism of DNA Gyrase
- It has the residue of tyrosine and one of the lone pairs of electrons on this oxygen of tyrosine acts as nucleophile and attacks the phosphorus
- Two electron bonds gets shifted on to this oxygen and an oxygen can pick up a hydrogen.
- It covalently bonds to the phosphorus thus breaking its phosphate sugar backbone
Mechanism of DNA Gyrase
- Dimeric enzyme
- Enzyme which cut the both strands of double helix of DNA
Topoisomerase II
Topoisomerase I
Differences between Topoisomerase I and Topoisomerase II
- Monomeric enzyme
- Enzyme which only cut one of the two strands of double helix of DNA
- Occurs in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes
- Require ATP hydrolysis
Topoisomerase II
Topoisomerase I
Differences between Topoisomerase I and Topoisomerase II
- Occurs in eukaryotes
- Does not require ATP hydrolysis
Unraveling the power of topoisomerase inhibition: Breaking the chains of cancer growth
Topoisomerase Inhibition
- Topoisomerase inhibition primarily occurs by the Inhibition of the religation reaction.
- This leads to the accumulation of DNA breaks, haulting DNA replication and causing apoptosis.
- The most important effect of these inhibitors is to block their target enzyme by binding to the active site, in the catalytic cycle where the enzyme is covalently bound to DNA. (Top-DNA cleavage complex)
Topoisomerases inhibitors act on both type 1 and 2
Inhibition Mechanism
Chemotherapy
These drugs are now widely adminstered against lung cancer, ovarian cancer, testicular cancer and leukemia
Anthracyclins and podophyllotoxinsact as anti-cancer drugs specifically targeting TOP II. Whereas, Camptothecins inhibits TOP 1 activity. Both group of drugs work by preventing the re-sealing of DNA strands
Fluoroquinolones are broad-spectrum potent anti-bacterial agents. The target these drugs are bacterial type 2 topoisomerase( DNA gyrase). Similarly, quinolones target both DNA gyrase and TOP IV
Anti-cancer agent
Anti-bacterial agent
This inhibition mechanism provides key to drug development.Depending on the organism and type of topoisomerase being targeted; the inhibitors can work as :
