M.tuberculosis Topo I
Mycobacterium tuberculosis topoisomerase I is a bacterial type I topoisomerase which can relax supercoiled DNA. It is a potential target for antibacterial drugs and can be used for screening potential novel antibacterial compounds. It is prepared by overexpressing the protein in E. coli and then purified by chromatography.
It is supplied in Dilution Buffer. Store at -80 °C.
The enzyme is supplied with Assay Buffer (5X concentration) and Dilution Buffer (1X) which are also available separately. 1 U of topo I will relax 0.5 µg of supercoiled pBR322 DNA in 30 minutes at 37 °C.
See technical documents below for more detailed information and lot specific activities.
