Requirement of DNA topoisomerases for in vitro chromatin assembly by 3T6 mouse cell extracts

Nuclear extracts of 3T6 mouse cells were able to assemble in vitro minichromosomes which displayed a 150‐bp periodicity. Activities of both DNA topoisomerases I and II were detected in these extracts. When a supercoiled pUC DNA was added, it was first relaxed in less than 3 min, then slowly supercoi...
