Structure 7:1373-83. 1999..Structural information on Escherichia coli DNA topoisomerase III is important for understanding the mechanism of this type of enzyme and for studying the mechanistic differences among different members of the same subfamily...
Protein-nucleotide interactions in E. coli DNA topoisomerase IH Feinberg
Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Cell Biology, Northwerstern University, 2153 Sheridan Road, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Nat Struct Biol 6:961-8. 1999..The positions of these sites allow us to identify different DNA binding regions and to understand their possible roles in the catalytic cycle...
Conformational changes in E. coli DNA topoisomerase IH Feinberg

Nat Struct Biol 6:918-22. 1999..The fragment is composed of two domains, and while the domains themselves remain largely unchanged, their relative arrangement can change dramatically...
Crystal structure of a complex of a type IA DNA topoisomerase with a single-stranded DNA moleculeA Changela
Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Cell Biology, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Nature 411:1077-81. 2001..These findings confirm various aspects of the type IA topoisomerase mechanism while suggesting functional implications for other topoisomerases and proteins that perform DNA rearrangements...
