Abstract excerpt
A full-length human DNA topoisomerase I complementary DNA clone was mutagenized in vitro and the mutagenized DNA was used to replace wild-type human TOP1 complementary DNA in YCpGAL1-hTOP1, a plasmid constructed for the expression of the human enzyme in yeast. A yeast strain devoid of yeast DNA topoisomerase I and permeable to the anticancer drug camptothecin was transformed with the plasmid pool. Assays of DNA...
