Inhibition of the DNA catenation activity of type II topoisomerase by VP16-213 and VM26.

Abstract:

:Studies suggest that the anticancer drugs VP16-213 and VM26 produce cytotoxicity by inducing protein-associated DNA breakage in vivo through interaction with a yet unknown nuclear component. The effects of these drugs and their congeners on topoisomerase activities was investigated. VP16-213, VM26, and congeners active toward inducing DNA breaks also inhibited the catenation activity of eukaryote type II topoisomerase in vitro at very low drug concentrations. A structure-activity relationship was obtained for inhibition of catenation that parallels in vivo DNA breakage and cytotoxic activities. Type I topoisomerase activity was totally unaffected by these drugs.
