Title Poly(ADP-ribosylation) of a DNA topoisomerase
Date 1983
Description A DNA topoisomerase activity, copurifying with poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase from calf thymus, >95% inhibited if extensive poly(ADP-ribosylation) is allowed to occur. The inhibited DNA topoisomerase, which has drastically different elution properties on hydroxylapatite, can be reactivated by mild alkaline treatment. These results are consistent with a poly(ADP-ribosylation) of the DNA topoisomerase and covalent attachment of the poly(ADP-ribose) moieties to the topoisomerase by alkali-labile bonds.
