Summary

TOP1 (DNA topoisomerase I, HGNC:11986) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 20q12, encoding DNA topoisomerase 1 (P11387). Releases the supercoiling and torsional tension of DNA introduced during the DNA replication and transcription by transiently cleaving and rejoining one strand of the DNA duplex. In precision oncology, TOP1 Amplification confers sensitivity to Cetuximab + FOLFIRI Regimen in Colorectal Cancer (CIViC Level B); 3 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 93.0% of cancer cell lines).

This gene encodes a DNA topoisomerase, an enzyme that controls and alters the topologic states of DNA during transcription. This enzyme catalyzes the transient breaking and rejoining of a single strand of DNA which allows the strands to pass through one another, thus altering the topology of DNA. This gene is localized to chromosome 20 and has pseudogenes which reside on chromosomes 1 and 22.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. Releases the supercoiling and torsional tension of DNA introduced during the DNA replication and transcription by transiently cleaving and rejoining one strand of the DNA duplex. Introduces a single-strand break via transesterification at a target site in duplex DNA. The scissile phosphodiester is attacked by the catalytic tyrosine of the enzyme, resulting in the formation of a DNA-(3’-phosphotyrosyl)-enzyme intermediate and the expulsion of a 5’-OH DNA strand. The free DNA strand then rotates around the intact phosphodiester bond on the opposing strand, thus removing DNA supercoils. Finally, in the religation step, the DNA 5’-OH attacks the covalent intermediate to expel the active-site tyrosine and restore the DNA phosphodiester backbone. Regulates the alternative splicing of tissue factor (F3) pre-mRNA in endothelial cells. Involved in the circadian transcription of the core circadian clock component BMAL1 by altering the chromatin structure around the ROR response elements (ROREs) on the BMAL1 promoter.

Subunit / interactions. Monomer. Interacts with ERCC6. Interacts with TPRN; TPRN interacts with a number of DNA damage response proteins, is recruited to sites of DNA damage and may play a role in DNA damage repair. (Microbial infection) Interacts with SV40 Large T antigen; this interactions allows viral DNA replication.

Subcellular location. Nucleus. Nucleolus. Nucleoplasm.

Tissue specificity. Endothelial cells.

Post-translational modifications. Sumoylated. Lys-117 is the main site of sumoylation. Sumoylation plays a role in partitioning TOP1 between nucleoli and nucleoplasm. Levels are dramatically increased on camptothecin (CPT) treatment. Phosphorylation at Ser-506 by CK2 increases binding to supercoiled DNA and sensitivity to camptothecin.

Disease relevance. A chromosomal aberration involving TOP1 is found in a form of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome. Translocation t(11;20)(p15;q11) with NUP98.

Activity regulation. Specifically inhibited by camptothecin (CPT), a plant alkaloid with antitumor activity.

Miscellaneous. Eukaryotic topoisomerase I and II can relax both negative and positive supercoils, whereas prokaryotic enzymes relax only negative supercoils.

Similarity. Belongs to the type IB topoisomerase family.
