โฆ Synopsis
A rapid and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic technique was developed to determinate NAD glycohydrolase (EC 3.2.2.5.) activity from Neurospora crassa conidia. The separation of the assay substrate and products was achieved by isocratic reverse-phase chromatography and the peaks were detected by the absorbance at 259 nm. Quantities of NAD+ and nicotinamide as small as 10 pmol could be measured.

A method for assaying the activities of DNA topoisomerases I and II has been developed. The assay for type I and II enzymes is based on monitoring relaxation of supercoiled plasmid DNA in the absence or presence of ATP, respectively. The reaction product, relaxed DNA, was separated from the substrat
