Functional interaction between human topoisomerase IIalpha and retinoblastoma protein.
DNA topoisomerase II-an essential nuclear enzyme in DNA replication and transcription, chromatin segregation, and cell cycle progression-is also a target of clinically useful anticancer drugs. Preliminary observations of a positive correlation between the expression of topoisomerase (topo) IIalpha and the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) in a series of rhabdomyosarcoma cells prompted us to ask wheth...
متن کاملFunctional interaction between retinoblastoma protein and stress-activated protein kinase in multiple myeloma cells.
Previous studies have demonstrated that gamma-irradiation (IR)-induced apoptosis in multiple myeloma (MM) is associated with activation of stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK). In the present study, we examined the molecules downstream of SAPK/C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), focusing on the role of retinoblastoma protein (Rb) during IR-induced MM cell apoptosis. The results demonstrate that IR...
متن کاملSynergistic interaction between histone deacetylase and topoisomerase II inhibitors is mediated through topoisomerase IIbeta.
BACKGROUND DNA topoisomerase II inhibitors and poisons are among the most efficacious drugs for the treatment of cancer. Sensitivity of cancer cells to the cytotoxic effects of topoisomerase II targeting agents is thought to depend on the expression of the topoisomerase IIalpha isoform, and drug resistance is often associated with loss or mutation of topoisomerase IIalpha. Histone deacetylase i...
متن کاملInteraction between human topoisomerase I and a novel RING finger/arginine-serine protein.
The N-terminus of human topoisomerase I participates in the binding of this enzyme to helicases and other proteins. Using the N-terminal 250 amino acids of human topoisomerase I and a yeast two-hybrid/ in vitro binding screen, a novel arginine-serine-rich peptide was identified as a human topoisomerase I-binding protein. The corresponding full-length protein, named topors, contains a consensus ...
متن کاملFunctional interaction between the pp71 protein of human cytomegalovirus and the PML-interacting protein human Daxx.
The tegument protein pp71 (UL82) of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has previously been shown to transactivate the major immediate-early enhancer-promoter of HCMV. Furthermore, this protein is able to enhance the infectivity of viral DNA and to accelerate the infection cycle, suggesting an important regulatory function during viral replication. To gain insight into the underlying mechanisms that a...
