Abstract excerpt
Several chemotherapeutic agents act via inhibition of topoisomerase (topo) II activity. Topo II levels appear to correlate with drug sensitivity in vivo. The DNA immediately 5' to the topo II alpha coding region contains five potentially regulatory inverted CCAAT boxes (ICB). Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) using oligomers containing the wild type forms of these ICBs show specific DNA-protein...
