Why Should DNA Topoisomerase I Have a Scaffold Activity?

Since the early 1990s, in vitro studies have demonstrated that DNA topoisomerase I promotes RNA polymerase II transcription, acting as a cofactor, regardless of its catalytic activity. Recent studies, carried in vivo, using yeast as a model system, also demonstrate that DNA topoisomerase I is able t...
