Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
heterodimer presence of two separate genes encoding for the core and catalytic domains, indicating that this singular feature is common to all trypanosomatids Trypanosoma cruzi
heterodimer the genes encoding each protein subunit are located on different chromosomes Leishmania donovani
monomer 765 amino acids. All type IB topoisomerases contain a conserved SKXXY signature in the region in which a tyrosine residue (Tyr-723 in the human topoisomeraseI) is the DNA-cleaving amino acid Homo sapiens
monomer 765 amino acids. All type IB topoisomerases contain a conserved SKXXY signature in the regionin which a tyrosine residue is the DNA-cleaving amino acid Mammalia
monomer Three structural domains, N-terminus domain (134 amino acids) poorly conserved, a 500 amino acid length block of conserved amino acids with high homology to the core domain of the human protein, the C-terminal domain is smaller than the hosts' but conserves the active tyrosine at position 798 which makes the enzyme fully active Plasmodium falciparum
More multimeric status of Trypanosoma brucei TopI. Molecular mass determination by gel filtration chromatography suggests that the native enzyme might exist as a tetrameric active A2B2 form or two heterodimers would facilitate the binding at the helical crossover points of DNA Trypanosoma brucei
More regulation of DNA topoisomerase I, different expression patterns described in the distinct life cycle stages of Plasmodium falciparum. An indirect evidence of potential post-translational mechanisms which could operate on Plasmodium topoisomerases at different stages of its life cycle Plasmodium falciparum
More relaxation activity of human TopI by adding to the core domain a series of peptides containing the C-terminal domain in the presence of DNA. Reinforced by using a two-hybrid expression system, identified proteins containing part of the linker and the C-terminal domain that supplemented the catalytic core of Saccharomyces cerevisiae topoisomerase I Homo sapiens
