Developmental regulation of Drosophila DNA topoisomerase II
Affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies were used to quantitate steady-state levels of DNA topoisomerase II (topo II) throughout Drosophila development. Although wide fluctuations were recorded at different stages, these fluctuations were paralleled by changes in levels of the nuclear lamin, a nuclear structural protein used as an internal standard. The exception to this was adult males where l...
متن کاملIntracellular forms of Drosophila topoisomerase II detected with monoclonal antibodies.
We developed monoclonal antibodies against Drosophila topoisomerase II and studied the intracellular forms and the in vivo and in vitro proteolytic degradation of the enzyme. In purified enzyme preparations polyclonal sera and monoclonal antibodies recognized several polypeptides in the 170-132 kD molecular weight range. In vivo, however, the pattern was much simpler. In Drosophila embryos, pup...
متن کاملAn RNase-sensitive particle containing Drosophila melanogaster DNA topoisomerase II
Most DNA topoisomerase II (topo II) in cell-free extracts of 0-2-h old Drosophila embryos appears to be nonnuclear and remains in the supernatant after low-speed centrifugation (10,000 g). Virtually all of this apparently soluble topo II is particulate with a sedimentation coefficient of 67 S. Similar topo II-containing particles were detected in Drosophila Kc tissue culture cells, 16-19-h old ...
متن کاملDNA Topoisomerase II Modulates Insulator Function in Drosophila
Insulators are DNA sequences thought to be important for the establishment and maintenance of cell-type specific nuclear architecture. In Drosophila there are several classes of insulators that appear to have unique roles in gene expression. The mechanisms involved in determining and regulating the specific roles of these insulator classes are not understood. Here we report that DNA Topoisomera...
متن کاملLocalization of topoisomerase II in mitotic chromosomes
In the preceding article we described a polyclonal antibody that recognizes cSc-1, a major polypeptide component of the chicken mitotic chromosome scaffold. This polypeptide was shown to be chicken topoisomerase II. In the experiments described in the present article we use indirect immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy to examine the distribution of topoisomerase II within intact ch...
