With his discovery that theEscherichia colichromosome was circular, John Cairns first pointed out the need for a swivel in DNA replication (1). In eukaryotes, type I DNA topoisomerase has the enzymatic properties necessary to serve as such a swivel. DNA replication would introduce positive supertwists ahead of the replication fork; DNA topoisomerase I has the capacity to unwind such positively supertwisted DNA (2, 3). For this reason, a role for topoisomerase I in replication has been suggested by many workers (2, 3). Recent biological and phenomenological data have also led to the suggestion that type I DNA topoisomerase may be involved in catalyzing DNA strand exchange under certain conditions (4). The mechanisms by which the activity of such a potentially important enzyme may be modulated are of obvious interest.
