Voreloxin Is an Anticancer Quinolone Derivative that Intercalates DNA and Poisons Topoisomerase II
BACKGROUND Topoisomerase II is critical for DNA replication, transcription and chromosome segregation and is a well validated target of anti-neoplastic drugs including the anthracyclines and epipodophyllotoxins. However, these drugs are limited by common tumor resistance mechanisms and side-effect profiles. Novel topoisomerase II-targeting agents may benefit patients who prove resistant to curr...
متن کاملDNA Topoisomerase II b and Neural Development
Garnham, Malaria Parasites and Other Haemosporidia (Blackwell Scientific, Oxford, 1966)]. Sex ratios based on counts of 50 to 75 gametocytes were found to be representative. We calculated sex ratios from either 50,000 RBCs or 100 gametocytes, whichever was less. Sex ratios are given as proportion of males. 7. R. E. Sinden, G. A. Butcher, O. Billker, S. L. Fleck,. Adv. Parasitol. 38, 53 (1996). ...
متن کاملDevelopmental regulation of Drosophila DNA topoisomerase II
Affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies were used to quantitate steady-state levels of DNA topoisomerase II (topo II) throughout Drosophila development. Although wide fluctuations were recorded at different stages, these fluctuations were paralleled by changes in levels of the nuclear lamin, a nuclear structural protein used as an internal standard. The exception to this was adult males where l...
متن کاملInterdomain Communication in DNA Topoisomerase II
Topoisomerase II catalyzes theATP-dependent transport of a DNAsegment (T-DNA) through a transient double strandbreak in another DNA segment (G-DNA). A fundamentalmechanistic question is how the individual steps in this process are coordinated. We probed communication between the DNA binding sites and the individual enzymatic activities, ATP hydrolysis, and DNA cleavage. We employed short DNA du...
متن کاملDNA topoisomerase: the mechanism of resistance to DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor VP-16.
K6-1 and 50B-3 cell lines, resistant to VP-16, a DNA topoisomerase II inhibitor, were established from two different types of cells respectively: human T-cell derived acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line RPMI8402 and mouse mammary tumor cell line FM3A. IC50 values of K6-1 and 50B-3 cells to VP-16, evaluated by the colony forming ability on methyl cellulose medium, were 11- and 84-fold higher ...
