These enzymes regulate the topology of DNA, maintain genomic integrity, and are essential for processes such as DNA replication, recombination, transcription, and chromosome segregation by allowing DNA strands to pass through each other (1). Topoisomerase I nicks and rejoins one strand of the duplex DNA, while topoisomerase II transiently breaks and closes double-stranded DNA (2). Topoisomerases are very susceptible to various stresses. Acidic pH or oxidative stress can convert topoisomerases to DNA-breaking nucleases, causing genomic instability and cell death. DNA-damaging topoisomerase-targeting drugs (e.g., etoposide) also convert topoisomerases to nucleases, with the enzyme usually trapped as an intermediate that is covalently bound to the 5+ end of the cleaved DNA strand(s). Research studies have shown that this intermediate leads to genomic instability and cell death. Thus, agents that target topoisomerases are highly sought-after cancer chemotherapeutic drugs (3). Moreover, an alanine to proline substitution at position 485 (A485P) of topoisomerase IIβ has been shown to impair early B cell development (4), and the catalytic activity of this protein modulates several oncogenes in human gliomas (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nantigen MLAA-44; DNA topoisomerase 2-beta; DNA topoisomerase II beta; DNA topoisomerase II, 180 kD; DNA topoisomerase II, beta isozyme; TOP2B; top2beta; TOPIIB; topo II beta; topoisomerase (DNA) II beta 180kDa; topoisomerase II beta; topoisomerase IIb; U937 associated antigen\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 200\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798065041577,"sku":"30160T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/cst-30160t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
