In previous studies, we isolated a mutant DNA topoisomerase I cDNA from a camptothecin (CPT)-resistant human T-lymphoblastic leukemia cell line, CPT-K5, and demonstrated that an amino acid change from Asp to Gly at residue 533 is responsible for the CPT resistance of the enzyme. In the present study
Camptothecin-1 1 (CPT-11) is a new derivative of camptothecin, a plant alkaloid antitumor agent. Previous studies indicated that antitumor activity of CPT-11 was mediated through interaction of the drugs with its target enzyme, DNA topoisomerase I (topo I). In this study, we studied the relation bet
