negatively supercoiled DNA the enzyme catalyzes a ATP-dependent DNA-positive supercoiling reaction of closed DNA plasmids. ATP is required for a correct coordination of DNA cleavage. The enzyme is able to induce positive supercoiling with ATP concentrations of 0.0001 mM. The efficiency of the reaction increases with increasing nucleotide concentrations, with an optimum between 0.1 and 1.0 mM. In the absence of ATP, the enzyme shows weak type I topoisomerase-like DNA relaxation activity. At all temperatures, relaxed and/or positive topoisomers are produced when a certain amount of the negative substrate is still present, thus suggesting that the enzyme is highly processive, i.e. it performs multiple supercoiling cycles before detaching from DNA and attacking a new substrate molecule. In the absence of ATP the enzyme shows weak type I topoisomerase-like DNA relaxation activity Pyrobaculum calidifontis positively supercoiled DNA

50 100 ATP-dependent positive supercoiling activity requires high temperature: whereas at 50 °C the enzyme shows only a weak DNA relaxation activity, both the amount and linking number of positive topoisomers increases with temperature. In reactions above 90 °C all products are highly positive, and a significant activity is seen even at 100°C Pyrobaculum calidifontis
60 80 in the absence of ATP the enzyme shows weak type I topoisomerase-like DNA relaxation activity. This activity can only be seen between 60 and 80 °C, whereas at higher temperatures the plasmid was converted into nicked form Pyrobaculum calidifontis
