Topoisomerases in human disease.

R J Epstein1.   

Abstract

Topoisomerases are DNA-modifying enzymes that are becoming increasingly important in clinical practice. These enzymes form a target for antibiotics, autoantibodies, and antitumour drugs, and may also be involved in the pathogenesis of certain genetic disorders. Strategies for clinical manipulation of these nuclear enzyme targets are discussed.
