What is another word for DNA Topoisomerase?
Pronunciation: [dˌiːˌɛnˈe͡ɪ tˈɒpɔ͡ɪsˌə͡ʊmɹe͡ɪz] (IPA) 
DNA topoisomerases are a group of enzymes that participate in the regulation of DNA topology. These enzymes are essential for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. Synonyms for DNA topoisomerases include DNA topoisomerase I and II, DNA gyrase, and DNA supercoiling enzyme. DNA topoisomerase I is responsible for relaxing the DNA helix by cutting one strand of DNA and allowing the other strand to rotate around the phosphodiester bond. DNA topoisomerase II is essential for creating negative supercoiling in DNA while DNA gyrase is responsible for creating negative supercoiling in DNA during replication. Overall, these enzymes function to ensure the proper structure and function of DNA in the cell.
