Abstract excerpt
Involvement of topoisomerase II in the repair of damage by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, UV light and gamma-rays has been studied using quiescent V79 cells. In each case, the presence of nalidixic acid, the inhibitor of topoisomerase II, decreased the survival through suppression of poten...
