Abstract excerpt
The segment of the vaccinia DNA topoisomerase from residues 143 to 167 (VGLLTLKNKHIEISPDEIVIKFVGK) is conserved in other members of the eukaryotic type I topoisomerase family. In order to gauge the function of this region, we performed a mutational analysis in which 23 of 25 positions were substi...
