Protein Domain : IPR028466

Type:  Family Name:  DNA topoisomerase II-alpha
Description:  DNA topoisomerase II makes double-strand breaks and is essential during mitosis and meiosis for proper segregation of daughter chromosomes []. Mammalian cells encode two type II isozymes, topoisomerase IIalpha (TOP2a) and beta (TOP2b), that have highly identical N-terminal ATPase and central core domains. However, they differ in their C-termini as well as expression patterns and cannot compensate for each other [].This entry represents TOP2a, which is associated with replication forks and remains tightly bound to chromosomes during mitosis. It is essential for the survival of proliferating cells and may functions in DNA replication and chromosome segregation []. Short Name:  Top2a
