Abstract:
:Cloning and sequencing of cDNA segments of human TOP2 gene encoding the 170 kDa form of human DNA topoisomerase II show that Arg486 of the enzyme has been mutated to a lysine in the enzyme from two human leukemia cell lines HL-60/AMSA and KBM-3/AMSA, which were independently selected for resistance to the antitumor drug amsacrine (4'-[9-acridinylamino]-methanesulfon-m-anisidide, mAMSA). Sequence identity comparisons between eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase II and bacterial gyrase (bacterial DNA topoisomerase II) indicate that the position of the common mutation observed in mAMSA-resistant human TOP2 corresponds to that of the point mutation nal-31 in the Escherichia coli gyrase B gene, which confers resistance to nalidixic acid. Because mAMSA and nalidixic acid are known to act on their respective targets by a common mechanism of trapping the covalent enzyme-DNA intermediates, these results provide strong evidence that the 170 kDa form of human DNA topoisomerase II is a major cellular target of mAMSA, and that Arg486 of this enzyme is involved in mAMSA-mediated trapping of the covalent enzyme-DNA complex.
