Research output: Contribution to journalShort surveypeer-review

Abstract

In this issue of Structure, Petrella et al. (2019) determine the structure of a catalytically competent construct of M. tuberculosis gyrase. Surprisingly, both apo and AMPPNP-bound structures capture a previously unknown enzyme state that is stabilized by a domain insertion unique to Corynebacteriales and appears to help regulate ATPase cycling.
