Abstract excerpt
Despite the prevalence of topoisomerase II-targeted drugs in cancer chemotherapy and the impact of drug resistance on the efficacy of treatment, interactions between these agents and topoisomerase II are not well understood. Therefore, to further define interactions between anticancer drugs and the type II enzyme, a nitrocellulose filter assay was used to characterize the binding of etoposide to yeast...
