Quinone-Induced Enhancement of DNA Cleavage by Human Topoisomerase II sub( alpha ): Adduction of Cysteine Residues 392 and 405

Several quinone-based metabolites of drugs and environmental toxins are potent topoisomerase II poisons. These compounds act by adducting the protein and appear to increase levels of enzyme-DNA cleavage complexes by at least two potentially independent mechanisms. Treatment of topoisomerase II a wit...
