Reverse gyrase and its helicase-like domain. (A) Full-length reverse gyrase, consists of an N-terminal helicase-like domain [H1, light blue, H2, cyan, H3 (latch), blue] and a C-terminal topoisomerase domain (orange). The helicase-like domain construct comprises the helicase-like domain (H1 and H2), and the latch-domain H3 that is inserted into H2. The positions of K106 in the Walker A motif and of the catalytic tyrosine, Y851 (black), and the putative zinc fingers (gray) are indicated. (B) Structure of A. fulgidus reverse gyrase [PDB-ID 1GKU, Ref. (10)], color-coded as in (A). The regions carrying the putative zinc fingers are missing in the electron density.
