Abstract
  • DNA topoisomerase I together with the other cellular DNA topoisomerases releases the torsional stress from DNA caused by processes such as replication, transcription and recombination. Despite the well-defined knowledge of its mechanism of action, DNA topoisomerase I in vivo activity has been only partially characterized. In fact the basic question concerning the capability of the enzyme to cleave and rejoin DNA wrapped around a histone octamer remains still unanswered. By studying both in vivo and in vitro the cleavage activity of DNA topoisomerase I in the presence of camptothecin on a repeated trinucleotide sequence, (TTA)(35), lying in chromosome XIII of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we can conclude that nucleosomes represent a physical barrier for the enzyme activity.
