Topoisomerase IIβ targets DNA crossovers formed between distant homologous sites to induce chromatin opening

Abstract Type II DNA topoisomerases (topo II) flip the spatial positions of two DNA duplexes, called G- and T- segments, by a cleavage-passage-resealing mechanism. In living cells, these DNA segments can be derived from distant sites on the same chromosome. Due to lack of proper methodology, however...
