Human Topoisomerase I
Human Topoisomerase I is prepared by overexpressing the enzyme in baculovirus-infected insect cells (Spodoptera frugiperda) and purifying it by methods adapted from Stewart et al., 1996. The enzyme is supplied μl in Dilution Buffer.
Store at -80°C. It is recommended that the enzyme is aliquoted to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
See technical documents below for more detailed information and lot specific activities.
