Methanosarcina acetivorans C2A topoisomerase IIIα, an archaeal enzyme with promiscuity in divalent cation dependence. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Topoisomerases play a fundamental role in genome stability, DNA replication and repair. As a result, topoisomerases have served as therapeutic targets of interest in Eukarya and Bacteria, two of the three domains of life.

DNA topoisomerases as targets for anticancer drugs

, 2001
DNA topoisomerases are essential enzymes that regulate the conformational changes in DNA topology by catalysing the concerted breakage and rejoining of DNA strands during normal cellular growth.

Facial Cosmetic Therapy Use Among Patients With Systemic Sclerosis: An Australian Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is associated with numerous facial manifestations for which patients may engage in cosmetic therapies. It is unclear how patients with SSc use these therapies. This study sought to characterize patient engagement and experiences with cosmetic therapies for SSc‐related and non‐SSc–related facial changes.

Role of Supercoiling and Topoisomerases in DNA Knotting

DNA
DNA knots are deleterious for living cells if not removed. Several theoretical and simulation approaches address the question of how topoisomerases select the intermolecular passages that preferentially lead to unknotting rather than to the knotting of ...

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

DNA topoisomerase inhibitors: biflavonoids from Ouratea species

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
Topoisomerase inhibitors are agents with anticancer activity. 7"-O-Methyl-agathisflavone (I) and amentoflavone (II) are biflavonoids and were isolated from the Brazilian plants Ouratea hexasperma and O. semiserrata, respectively.

Mitochondria and Neuromast Tagging With Fluorescent Gallium‐Triapine Analogues: In Cellulo MP FLIM and Zebrafish Live Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fluorescent BODIPY‐conjugated thiosemicarbazone ligands and their Ga(III), In(III), and Fe(III) complexes, inspired by Triapine, are developed as theranostic agents. Multiphoton FLIM and confocal microscopy in cancer cells and zebrafish reveal real‐time uptake, mitochondrial localisation, and whilst spectroscopic assays indicated preserved complex ...

Complete Pathway Refactoring and Combinatorial Biosynthesis of Anthracyclines for Modulation of Histone Eviction and DNA Damage Bioactivities

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A synthetic biology platform was established for the complete refactoring of complex anthracycline biosynthetic pathways in Streptomyces coelicolor using standardized, chemically synthetic DNA parts. This modular construction enabled streamlined combinatorial biosynthesis, yielding novel analogs that decouple DNA damage from chromatin damage (histone ...
