Figure 4From: Analysis of DNA relaxation and cleavage activities of recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA topoisomerase I from a new expression and purification protocolTime course of DNA relaxation. A. 50 ng of EcTOP (lanes 1–10) and MtTOP (lanes 11–20) was utilized in a relaxation assay as described in the "materials and methods" section over time course of 0, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 120, 180 sec respectively for each enzyme. B. Quantitation of the relaxation time course. The percent relaxation values reported are averages of at least three independent experiments. Error bars denote the standard error of mean.Back to article page
