Recombinant Human DNA topoisomerase I (from Insect cells (Sf9))
Enzyme
DNA topoisomerase I is a key nuclear enzyme that interconverts supercoiled DNA to the required topological conformations for normal DNA replication and transcription.

This enzyme is the target antigen for the so-called Scl-70 autoantibodies. Scl-70 antibodies are a specific marker in Scleroderma patients (specificity 98 to 100%) and are associated with the presence of diffuse skin involvement and pulmonary fibrosis.

In human tissues the DNA topoisomerase I is initially synthesised as a protein with 100 kDa molecular weight. Most of this precursor is then proteolytically processed to a species with 70 kDa molecular weight from which the Scl-70 antigen has derived its name.

Recombinant Human Scl-70 produced in SF9 is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 91576 Da. Recombinant Scl-70 is expressed with a 6× His tag and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
