Evaluation of two models for human topoisomerase I interaction with dsDNA and camptothecin derivatives. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Human topoisomerase I (Top1) relaxes supercoiled DNA during cell division. Camptothecin stabilizes Top1/dsDNA covalent complexes which ultimately results in cell death, and this makes Top1 an anti-cancer target.
