Variation in DNA swivel enzyme activity during the mammalian cell cycle.

RESUMO

Synchronized cells of a normal human lymphocytic cell line contain little swiven enzyme activity in G0 and G1 and high activity in Sphase. The level of activity in different growth phase appears to be related to the fraction of the population engaged in DNA replication. No endogenous inhibitor or activator of swiven activity could be demonstrated. The evidence implies that the enzyme may be present only during S phase; it is therefore a possible control factor for replication.
