Topoisomerase II is essential for chromosome condensation and segregation at mitosis in eukaryotic cells, but the mechanism of its regulation is not clearly understood. We have investigated whether or not the a isozyme of human topoisomerase II is ph

The Dbf2 protein kinase functions as part of the mitotic-exit network (MEN), which controls the inactivation of the Cdc28-Clb2 kinase in late mitosis [1]. The MEN includes the Tem1 GTP binding protein; the kinases Cdc15 and Cdc5; Mob1, a protein of u

We have characterized HsCdc6, a human protein homologous to the budding yeast Cdc6p that is essential for DNA replication. We show that, unlike Cdc6p, the levels of HsCdc6 protein remain constant throughout the cell cycle in human cells. However, pho

We have identified a novel human protein, PRC1, that is involved in cytokinesis. PRC1 is a good substrate for several CDKs in vitro and is phosphorylated in vivo at sites that are phosphorylated by CDK in vitro, strongly suggesting that PRC1 is an in

Topoisomerase II is an essential enzyme in all organisms with several independent roles in DNA metabolism. In this article we review our knowledge on the regulation of the expression and catalytic activity of topoisomerase II in both lower and higher

Type II topoisomerases are essential for faithful cell division in all organisms. In human cells, the α isozyme of topoisomerase II has been implicated in catalyzing mitotic chromosome segregation via its action as a DNA unlinking enzyme. Here, we h

Topoisomerase II enzymes play an essential role in human DNA metabolism. They are also recognized as primary targets of a number of anti-cancer drugs used in the treatment of breast cancer, which remains a leading cause of cancer-related death in wom

Topoisomerase II protein is essential for cell proliferation and is known to exist as a phosphoprotein in cells from both lower and higher eukaryotic species. In this paper, we have investigated the phosphorylation of the alpha isozyme of human topoi

Ubiquitin ligases (E3) select proteins for ubiquitylation, a modification that directs altered subcellular trafficking and/or degradation of the target protein. HECT domain E3 ligases not only recognize, but also directly catalyze, ligation of ubiqui
